The best seafood in town in a fabulous location overlooking the marina- they have their own fishing boat that brings in fresh snapper and other delights. Try the grouper plate with their wonderful citrusy coleslaw, and one of the many local beers on offer. Top it off with the best Key Lime pie in town, made by a local family bakery.

A real locals' scene- check their billboards to see if they are having a fish fry, barbeque night or some other do, which are open to all. A neat way to meet some old-time Dunedin residents, as well as new ones. And check out the Gator out front- these landing vehicles were originally designed and built in Dunedin during WWII for use in both the European and Pacific theaters.

This is a fine place for a date night. They have a great cocktail menu, wines, and beers. The food is always delicious. I enjoy going for a full meal or just to grab drinks. They often have quality live music which is a nice treat and you can sit inside or out. I highly recommend The Living Room for a nice evening out!

Great beer, chill atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. They are right along the Pinellas Trail so you can ride your bike right up their outdoor patio. They often have cards/board games available for use and I have found that bringing a toddler is no big deal. They have rocks in the patio area and jenga to keep the little kiddos happily entertained.

This is by far my favorite brewery in town! Their family story is interesting, the atmosphere is so nice inside and out, they often have live music, and the beer itself is stellar. From light brews to stouts they have it all. I highly recommend grabbing at least one round here!

Parks & Nature

Ride your bike up the Pinellas Trail and then enjoy biking around in the hammock- sand and boardwalk trails take you through the jungly landscape that show what Dunedin was like when it was settled by Scottish families in the 1880s. There's a beautiful historic chapel up there too. Keep an eye out for gopher tortoises, and the very occasional alligator!

Edgewater Park has a great playground with multiple climbing structures, swings, and a nice view of the downtown marina. If you are looking to entertain the kiddos this is a great place to do it! Edgewater Park stretches all the way down the waterfront to the southern end of Dunedin- a lovely stroll.

Weaver Park has two sections- the dock leads far out over the water, a beautiful place to enjoy the sunset. Across the street- be careful crossing- you will find a playground right on the Pinellas Trail, with lots of options for the kiddos and also an outdoor work out area, machines and shade included for free! I recommend this park for the whole family.

Conseils aux voyageurs

Voyage avec enfants

Great playground by the downtown marina

They have lots of play areas, some divided by age, with shaded places to sit. You can take the kids walking down along the driveway along the southern edge of the marina to the little beach in front of the marina and boat club- a nice place for the kids to be able to put their toes in the water, although it's not really a nice sandy beach like at Honeymoon.
Coutumes et culture

Definitely check out the website localtikirides

This is a local business- you can get a ride Friday or Saturday on their hilarious tiki van (it works on a tips-only basis) or charter it, and their social media page usually has a list of what's happening all over Dunedin. Lots of local and up-to-date info!
