Pinellas County is a small peninsula that extends into the Gulf of Mexico. The Tampa Bay provides the eastern border and Pasco County is directly north. Sailing, fishing, jet skiing, snorkeling and scuba diving are part of everyday life, and championship golf courses and tennis courts are open year-round. More than 300 species of fish populate the waters, making the area one of Florida's premier fishing locales.

The area is gaining national and international recognition as a leader in eco-tourism and environmental management. Diverse ecosystems can be found in local parks, providing ample opportunities for hiking, biking and birding.

A string of islands called Holiday Isles cushions the main part of the peninsula from the Gulf of Mexico. The islands are connected to the mainland by five bridges. The islands' wide, white beaches are strung like a necklace from Belleair Beach to St. Pete Beach and their tranquil communities are casual and friendly, offering a sunny welcome to all.

St. Pete offers year-round city festivals, theater, symphonies with the Florida Orchestra and performances by the Tampa Bay Opera as well as unique shopping areas such as the famous Pier, located at the Bayfront section on Tampa Bay.

Tarpon Springs, named for the fish found in abundance off the Gulf coast, is the oldest city in Pinellas County, as well as its most northern. Located on the Gulf of Mexico, Tarpon Springs has 51 miles of waterfront and a charming downtown center that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Pinellas is one of the smallest counties of Florida, with 309 square miles, yet its population comes close to 900,000.
