Treasure Island

Classic Gulf Coast beach-town living with laid-back charm and wide sandy shores
Treasure Island is a small barrier-island city on Florida’s Gulf Coast known for its nearly three to four miles of white sand beaches, gentle surf, and relaxed seaside lifestyle that blends everyday residential living with a beach vacation vibe. Whether you’re seeking morning walks on the shore, paddleboarding and fishing in Boca Ciega Bay, or memorable Gulf sunsets, the island’s natural beauty and waterfront access are central to life here.

The community is friendly and diverse, with a mix of residents who live year-round and visitors who return seasonally. Beaches like Sunshine, Municipal Beach, and Sunset Beach each have their own feel from quieter, more residential stretches to livelier spots with nearby dining, pubs, and water sport rentals. Outdoor recreation is abundant, with biking along the beach trail, kite flying, and community events like sand sculpting competitions drawing people together throughout the year.

While Treasure Island offers a laid-back island lifestyle, it’s also conveniently located between St. Pete Beach and Madeira Beach and a short drive from downtown St. Petersburg’s cultural and dining districts. This makes it a great fit if you value coastal access, outdoor activities, and a relaxed community atmosphere, with urban amenities just a quick trip away.
