Albert Whitted Park — Attraction in Saint Petersburg

We were visiting from out of town. This was such a fun park! My 5 year old son loved it. Bring sunscreen and water. There is no shade and the slides did get pretty hot by 11 am. The park is at the end of a pier and is between a yacht club and an airport. My son loved to watch the student sailors learning how to sail in the bay as well as the small bi-planes as well as small private planes taking off and landing at various times. He had a blast climbing the "control tower" as well as flying the "medical plane" and the "jumbo jet". Lots of slides, ladders and steps to get the wiggles out. Also there a a public restroom near by. It's semi-clean and usable. There is a fence that goes around the whole park. It is not a well locked gate, just a typical u-shaped lock to easily lift and open. A very curious toddler could probably open it. This park kept my son occupied for about an hour and a half. So we'll worth it. The park is 5 min from John Hopkins All Children's and about 10 minutes from the Staybridge hotel downtown St. Petersburg. There is limited free parking right by the park and some metered parking closer to...

This is an amazing park. Our family loves coming here. The kids enjoy themselves in the play ground while the adults can fish, talk, walk, etc. It is one of St. Pete's best places to just relax and enjoy the scenery, have a picnic, go fishing, enjoy the park, watch for dolphins, go for a walk, or a bike ride, meet people from all over, enjoy the view, watch the excitement from the airport, have lunch at the Hanger restaurant, go to the Dali museum, this is just a fantastic area with so much to do and fun for everyone in the family. Love it. I do not think anyone could come to this area of the city and not have an enjoyable experience. Your entire family should have a good...
