About this listen

Step off the beaten path to discover the fun and artsy town of Gulfport located just a few miles from St. Pete. At this coastal community you can enjoy morning (or evening!) outdoor markets, local brews and live music, shopping, art and fabulous festivals.

If you like a bit of adventure and exploration with your beach vacation, Ft. De Soto Park, Tierra Verde, Pass-A-Grille Beach and Weedon Island are for you.

In this episode, you'll hear from world-traveler/blogger Travelling Ted about his experiences, kayaking, hiking and birding in these beautiful parks. You'll also find out what he considers "Florida's Big Five" of wildlife and where you might spot them!

We'll close out with our host Kerry O'Reilly from the Tampa Bay Times and audio engineer Dave Morrison on the beach at Pass-A-Grille attempting to spot the green flash as the sun sets.
