Fun Things to do in Tarpon Springs Florida  

Tarpon Springs, Florida is home to two of Pinellas Counties best Public Parks and today I‘d like to share information with you on  A.L. Anderson Park located in Tarpon Springs Florida and is situated on Lake Tarpon. 

Fred H Howard Park is the other Pinellas Park located in Tarpon Spings Florida and juts out into the Gulf of Mexico complete with it’s own beach.

Anderson Park – Boating, Dog Park, Picnics, Playgrounds and More

Pinellas County Park, A. L. Anderson Park, is made up of almost 130 acres of green space in Northern Pinellas County.

It has a distinctive hilly terrain and long nature trail and boardwalk along Lake Tarpon and Salmon Bay.

A.L. Anderson Park also has a playground for kids and is a favorite among Tampa Bay doggie paw grounds for dogs. This Pinellas County Park also had large areas of ample picnic tables overlooking the waterfront.

 A. L. Anderson park officially opened in 1982 and is named after a former commissioner who was a fisherman and also won several conservation awards.  

Today I want share some of my favorite things about A L Anderson Park in Tarpon Springs are:

• The Pinellas County public boat ramps for easy access to freshwater boating, jet skiing and more - the large parking lot is appreciated on busy holidays and weekends;
• These Pinellas County Parks have an elaborate Paw Playground for man's best friend - the dog park is complete with fire hydrants, water and more;
• Playground for kids as well that overlooks Lake Tarpon and hilly terrain.
• It has several shaded picnic shelters -  Bar-B-Ques, Family Picnics and Birthday Parties are a few of the uses that come to mind; One sits overlooking Lake Tarpon.
• Public restroom facilities are kept neat in clean in my experience;

Clearwater Beach Florida Sunset Series

I’m breaking all the rules this week since this week’s sunset is found south of Clearwater Beach FL  in Tierra Verde Florida and Ft Desoto Park. We’ve even included a video to help share the experience this week. So next week we’ll be back to normal with a sunset quote and the spotlight on one special sunset.    

We got to take time off this past week from selling homes and condos on Clearwater Beach Florida to go tent camping in Tierra Verde with my parents who came down from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to spend some quality time with my family and be here to celebrate some family birthdays. 

Jack was a trooper and was running back and forth between the campsite and Clearwater Beach since we had clients visiting from Massachusetts along with several buyers working towards closing on their homes for Christmas.  

We sometimes forget how lucky we are to be able to do “tent camping” along the Gulf beaches near Clearwater for a variety of reasons. First, it’s such comfortable weather it was in the 80’s all week; Second, it’s a bargain when you consider it costs less than $40 per night with electricity, running water, clean and safe facilities and more; Third, it’s truly a piece of waterfront paradise on the Gulf of Mexico.

The best part of camping around Clearwater FL in the winter (ok actually there is one more week of fall left but don’t tell my friends up north) is you get to experience the best parts of Pinellas County Gulf beach living without having to travel very far. 

You can go fishing from the park seawall or the gulf of mexico pier; birdwatching along the Great Florida Bird Trail, collecting sand dollars and shelling along the beach, biking through the trails, and just hanging out relaxing in the hammocks – ending each day watching the sun dip below the water with the promise of another beautiful day tomorrow.    

If you have a sunset you want to share just email it to me at cyndee@sandbarstosunsets.com

Clearwater Beach Real Estate Agents Favorite Florida Sunset from week Camping

Thanks for allowing me to share a little about the fun we have living in Clearwater Florida and our extensive parks and recreation system in Pinellas County that we feel justified in bragging about. 

As the sunset on our week of old fashion family fun at Ft Desoto Park – it was great to experience a week with no gameboys, no TV’s just serene walks, personal talks and hanging out in the hammocks.

I thought you’d get a kick seeing our youngest enjoy sleeping under the Florida stars in shorts – we definitely had perfect Clearwater winter weather.

This is the picture I’ll carry in my mind of “total relaxation and comfort” – isn’t that what we all are looking for. Not to worry, we’ve got lots of great outdoor retreats here in and around Clearwater Florida. We look forward to sharing more special sunsets from our piece of paradise.  

Wishing you a great upcoming week – remember not to get too hurried with all the holiday hustle and bustle to enjoy some old fashion fun with your family and friends. 

From our family to your’s have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.    

Gotta a local sunset – won’t you share?

Clearwater Beach Florida Sunset Series

We thought it was only fitting to use a photo from one of our favorite sunset spots of all time – Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach Florida.

It’s a place where we “celebrate” the sun setting each day with performers, crafters, music and more – we give Key West a definite run for their money. Kids enjoy the 2 playgrounds too.

If you have a sunset you want to share just email it to me at cyndee@sandbarstosunsets.com

We are treated to some of the most majestic sunsets each day in Clearwater Beach Florida and the surrounding beaches. We’re lucky because Pier 60 is home of the Best City Beach, Clearwater Beach – and it’s in our backyard. 

We get to experience the magic evening as we relax and enjoy watching the sun settle into the Gulf of Mexico. In Clearwater Beach Florida we always take our sunsets seriously. 

This week is now over and we are looking forward to the upcoming week with our family from Philadelphia Pennsylvania that’s visiting. Did I mention it was 80 degrees on December 9^th 2007 – sunsets seem better when you’re watching in your bare feet with the white sand between your toes. :-) – Wish you were here!
