Go Beyond the Beach With TradeWinds Cruise Adventures

When you think of Florida's Gulf Coast, pristine white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters likely come to mind. But at TradeWinds Resort on St. Pete Beach, we invite you to dive deeper into your vacation experience with our curated water adventures. From leisurely floats to adrenaline-pumping thrills, we've got something for every type of water enthusiast.

Stand-Up Paddleboarding: A Serene Start

Begin your aquatic journey with stand-up paddleboarding, an activity perfect for beginners and fitness enthusiasts alike. Glide across the calm Gulf waters, taking in the breathtaking coastline views while giving your core a workout. It's a peaceful way to start your day and connect with the natural beauty surrounding you.

Aquabanas and Floating Loungers: Relaxation Redefined

Seeking a more laid-back experience? Our Aquabanas offer a unique way to enjoy the water. These floating cabanas come complete with a shaded sitting area and a cooler of ice, allowing you to spend a leisurely day on the water in comfort. If you prefer to soak up some sun, our floating loungers provide the perfect solution. These large, cushioned rafts let you bask in the Florida sunshine while gently bobbing on the waves.

Powered Adventures: Jet Ski Excursions

Ready to kick things up a notch? Our guided watercraft tours offer an exhilarating way to explore the coastline. Hop on a powered watercraft and follow our experienced guides as they show you the best spots around St. Pete Beach. If you're feeling adventurous, rent a watercraft and chart your own course.

Fun With Floating Fruit: Ride the Banana Boats

For a group thrill, don't miss our banana boat rides. Climb aboard an inflatable, banana-shaped craft with your friends or family and hold on tight as you're pulled along the coastline for a wet and wild adventure.

Parasailing: A Bird's Eye View

For the ultimate perspective of St. Pete Beach, try parasailing. Soar 300 feet above the water and take in panoramic views of the Gulf Coast. It's an unforgettable experience that combines the thrill of flight with the beauty of the Florida coastline.

Sandbar Parties and Cruises: Social Adventures

Join fellow guests for a lively sandbar party and boat cruise to the famous John's Pass. Float, soak up the sun, and enjoy the company of new friends in this unique social setting. It's a fantastic way to experience the local culture and make lasting vacation memories.

Nature Encounters: Shelling and Dolphin Tours

Our island shelling and sunset cruise is a must-do activity for nature lovers. We'll take you to Shell Island, where you can hunt for beautiful shells and sand dollars. As the day winds down, you'll witness a spectacular Gulf Coast sunset from the water. Want to get up close with marine life? Our shelling and dolphin tour offers the chance to encounter playful bottlenose dolphins in their natural habitat. After watching these magnificent creatures, we'll stop at Shell Key to beachcomb for some souvenirs.

Floating Water Park: Fun for All Ages

Our floating water park is a hit with guests of all ages. Featuring inflatable slides, trampolines, ocean loungers, and rafts, it's a playground on the water where you can splash, bounce, and slide to your heart's content.

Human-Powered Adventures: Paddleboats and Kayaks

Interested in a more tranquil experience? Try our paddleboats! Meander through the resort's waterways at your own pace, taking in the lush landscape and Florida wildlife.
