Things To Do In Indian Rocks Beach FL - Visit Florida

Indian Rocks Beach, on Florida’s Gulf Coast, is a laid-back, quiet destination within easy driving distance of bigger cities like Clearwater and St. Petersburg.

Walk the beach and look for shells, swim in the turquoise water, and check out the Seaside Seabird Sanctuary, which can be reached on foot from the beach. Be sure to visit Indian Rocks Beach Nature Preserve, which features a boardwalk through the mangroves.

For families with children, Splash Harbour Water Park is a must-stop. Located at Holiday Inn & Suites Harbourside, the park is open to the public and features a 42-foot-tall water slide. When you’re finished, head to the fun and lively Jimmy Guana’s Waterfront Restaurant, also located at the hotel.

Browse the shops and choose from a variety of restaurants. Grab a cup of coffee at Indian Shores Coffee Co. and a crepe from Café de Paris Bakery. For lunch, check out Kooky Coconut and at dinnertime, try the elegant Salt Rock Grill or order casual tex-mex from Jake’s Coastal Cantina.
