Hi everyone, thanks so much for watching! What would you be most excited to do in Indian Shores?! Let us know in the comments. The Seabird Sanctuary is one of our fave spots. We couldn't get enough of those little screech owls!
Our sons were 5 & 7 years old when we stayed at Indian Shores Resort in Sept. 1991. I see the building in the video. What a beautiful walk in the morning & beautiful sunsets.
What great memories you have of your Florida beach town visits. How great it would have been to experience these beaches as children back in the 90's. We were lucky to get more than a couple hours from home on our childhood vacations!
Yeah, all the birds on display are lifers that will never be able to be released back into the wild due to permanent disability, so they are pretty social and definitely have no fear of people!
One of my favorite things to do is come here on a saturday morning and see where you two have been and what video you have up ! Cup of coffee and Explocation !!! thanks guys !
I come here every year and our condo is right across from the beach so we can go to the top and watch the he sunset from high up. You should visit Haze Ice Cream, I don’t think that it is still in Indian Rocks but it is definitely nearby. They have many flavors and it tastes so good! You could make a short about it and start a mini series about places you go that can’t make a full video. Definitely my favorite ice cream. Also thanks for showing the Coffee Co because their coffee is amazing! My favorite is their Black Forest. Sorry for the long comment😅
How great that must be do have memories of visiting Indian Shores every year! And thanks for the recommendation on the ice cream and the mini-series idea. We've been considering making long videos (around 25-30 minutes) a couple weeks out of the month and short videos (5 minutes or less) the other two weeks where we just visit one event or maybe one or places to eat/drink. Very nice to hear that you would enjoy watching the shorter ones!
Owl Pocino is the cutest name I have ever heard, love all the birds there! The ultimate Dive bar is such a cool spot, also those Bloody Marys are looking amazing, that's our favorite brunch drink!
I love this channel!!! We are going to be staying in this area of Florida and your channel is so informative! Thank you for creating this great channel!
Thank you so much for this kind comment, Jessica! We're so glad you discovered our channel, and we hope it helps you to make the most of your vacation here!
YUM GUYS! So man yummy drinks and yummy food. That apple crisp was definitely a highlight for us! Love that you added mini golf! So fun and even though we not good, we can always drink our worries away. Dive Bar loving adults for the win!
Oh that apple crisp was phenomenal. Thinking about it now makes me want to go get more! And yeah, I don't really think that there's much of a correlation between fun had while goofy golfing and skill level. There may be a correlation with alcohol consumption though 😂
New subscriber. Loving your videos. Live in St. Pete now. Finding lots of new places to go with your help. Thanks. One thing, take off your hat inside while dining. It's Florida, but come on. Haha, now I sound like your grandma. I'm surely old enough. Anyway, great content.
We're so happy to hear that our channel is helping you to find new places to explore, Tammy. And as you know, (almost) anything goes in Florida... that's part of the reason we love it so much 😂
I own a condo in Indian Shores (barefoot beach next to salt rock grill) and I’ve never been to Mahuffers. I knew it was a dive bar but some of the characters I’ve seen coming and going (stumbling) I always steered clear of the place. But now that I’ve seen the inside, I’ll have to check it out. The Bloody Mary looked delicious. Thanks for the peak!
Oh yeah we know exactly where Barefoot Beach is. We've stayed in Indian Shores a couple times not too far from there. And yeah, Mahuffer's is an incredibly interesting place full of equally interesting characters, but we generally enjoy the interesting 😅. We hope you check it out and love it as much as we do!
We don't own but have stayed at BB for years. (My husband proposed in D113 😂) We call it our home away from home. Love Indian Shores so much. Have been planning our move and hope to be nearby soon. 💕
Jamie & Skylar, thanks you so much for recommending Seaside Seabird Sanctuary, we enjoyed watching all the birds, the aquariums and the Ladies' lecture. At the tower we sat in a very comfortable chairs and listened to the ocean waves. Then walked to the shore too. It's a great place to visit and relax surrounding with the birds singing and chirping.
I've watched several of your videos now and it's been super insightful to planning my 1st trip to this area. We will be splitting up our upcoming trip in May (airbnb in Indian Rocks Beach) & (hotel in st.pete beach).. :) two diff vibes!
You guys vacation a lot like we do! We often try to split up our vacations into a more active/adventurous portion and a more chill/relaxing portion. It's the best way to do it if you ask us! We hope you have an awesome time when you make it down here!
Hi, you have been to one of my favourite Restaurants . I love sitting outside at the water and enjoy the delicious food the serve at Salt Rock Grill. Thank you for showing us more of the great Beaches and Restaurants in the St. Pete Area.
We're glad to hear it, Ralf. We do love the Salt Rock as well but have not yet dined outside. Now that it's starting to cool off, we're definitely going to call in a reservation next time to make sure we can enjoy the outdoor seating!
If I keep adding places from your videos to my December trip I’ll be there till January. That Salt Rock is a must. Same with the mini golf. We play everywhere we go.
We are not big golfers, but we did have a lot of fun at Smuggler's Cove. It's a bit pricey, but anyone who is in to mini golf will surely love it! By December the weather here should be beautiful, so we'd definitely recommend calling ahead a few days to reserve an outside spot at the Salt Rock!
@@Explorcation You were so right about Indian Rocks Beach. I went there twice and parked for free next to the Municipal Center. I was disappointed in 1885 Grill. The food was ok but I ordered the special before 5:30 and felt the portions were skimpy. I know you reviewed Roosterfish Grill In Largo recently and their specials are much better.
@@romanm9718 Hi Roman, thanks for coming back to let us know about your experience. Parking at the Municipal Center is great! So sorry to hear you didn't have a great experience with the early bird special :( You are right though, Roosterfish has some solid options!
We've been through the Indian Shores area but haven't stopped...looks like we'll be checking out a few places in the future! I see there's a Caddy's location there as well!!
Wow that beach is gorgeous! How nice that there are so few people! Love that owls can blink just one eye. It makes them even cuter! Great find for dinner! That early dinner menu looked fantastic! And what a way to end the day with a sunset! Lovely!
Our go-to town for years! Beautiful video. We love our friends at Seaside Bird Sanctuary! Counting down two months until our next visit. Thank you for showcasing this wonderful beach town 💕
Great places! I think we would be at the sanctuary all day lol. This is a great idea... a day of exploring! Mahofers looks fun & interesting lol Cheers guys 🍻 - Ashley from Adventure Encounters
Its funny that as long as I have been coming down there, how many times I have just driven right past so many of these places.! I had my wedding at Sand Key and reception at The Conch Republic. There is a Paris Bakery cafe I think it was called that had the best crepes Ive ever had ! I hope its still open when I get back down there. And Mauhauffer's was there when I lived there in Madeira in the late 70's ! It is on my Bucket list to visit again !
I'm sure that a lot of the "decor" in Mahuffer's today was there in the late 70's! We love the Conch Republic. I believe Paris Baker is in Indian Rocks. We'll be doing a visit to Indian Rocks one of these weeks, and we'll plan to stop by Paris!
Another beautiful beach and charming town! Thank you for including addresses on where to find free parking. I also loved the sanctuaries! Such a beautiful place. That has to be the most amazing sunset I have ever seen! Thanks for another great video ☺️
Thanks for the feedback, Tonya. It's great to know you found the addresses to be helpful! That really was an amazing sunset. One of the best we've seen on the beach for sure. I still remember one from back when we first moved to Sarasota and would go to the beach every weekend. It had stormed right before sunset and all of the clouds were lit up in the most vivid colors. Watching a good sunset over the gulf will never get old!
I don’t know how you do it, but every time I think you’ve showed us the most beautiful beach, you manage to find an even more stunning beach! Free parking and having it all to yourself is such a bonus! And what an amazing sunset 🥰 Love the bird sanctuary and how the birds have names, Owl Paccino 🥺❤️❤️ the curious pelicans are too cute! The food looked great! And we would definitely want to check out the dive bar. Those bloody Mary’s looked like one of the most impressive we’ve seen in your videos 🤤 I think we’d love Indian Shores!
Oh you guys are too nice. The beaches are definitely one of the things that brought us to Florida 8 years ago. We do get a bit spoiled and take them for granted sometimes, but it definitely is nice to have so many beaches right at your doorstep! And yeah we really got lucky with that sunset. It was one of the best we've seen in a long time! We always recommend visiting the dive bar to anyone who comes and visits. It's the type of place you are either going to love or hate, but either way, it will leave a lasting impression!
How was that amazing beach so empty!? And what a sunset too! Also, I loved that little screech owl... such a horrible name for such a cute bird haha 😂Crazy golf is always fun (we're terrible too)
Yeah we really lucked out with this video. We initially thought it might be tough to make make a good video here since it's a very small town, but it ended up being one of our favorites! The great sunset definitely helped with that!
This is a great looking spot guys and looks like you were able to full in your day with things to do. I went to an owl sanctuary in Japan once...they are way too cute and love how they turn their heads...lol. I can't believe this spit was free. Never had a teriyaki tuna entree before...I think I would like to give it a go. The beaches, dining options and the beautiful sunset really make the spot...so glad you shared. ...and oopps ...I picked up the spelling mistake 🤣...lucky it's hardly noticeable
Ugh we're gonna have to watch back through it to find the typo. Definitely one of the downfalls to editing videos late into the night. Yeah we both love owls, and it really is hard to believe that the sanctuary is free to visit. Plus you can walk there right from the beach. It really is too good to be true. Teriyaki tuna is pretty popular around here, and we'd definitely recommend giving it a try if you ever see it in your parts!
@@Explorcation I feel your pain and dome it plenty of times before. Sometime I get Matt to look over it before downloading... fresh set of eyes. It's at the start when you mention the address of the parking. Not that you can do anything about it now...but you can hardly notice Will have a look out for the tuna 👍
Brb....just going to hop on a plane and come to the beach 😂 Wow there's really a lot of different things you can do in Indian Shores. Dinner, drinks, and put put sounds like a good time. Oh and of course just hanging out at the beach!
Wow - you guys were so lucky to have the beach basically all to yourself! Those muffins looked incredible. The mini putting looked pretty fun and I would definitely want to visit the dive bar. And those bloody Mary's looked so good (we call them Caesars here).
Yeah that beach is never too busy to begin with, and in the down season (late summer/hurricane season) it really tends to be empty. Even so, we were still a bit surprised to find it that empty on a Saturday afternoon! The mini putting is a lot of fun and Mahuffer's is one of our favorite spots on all of the islands. It's truly one of a kind.
Hey guys! That beach looks SO amazing, I love finding beaches that are completely empty. What a heaven! Also Cyprus the owl is giving me life - what an absolute cutie! Cheers to the bloody marys also guys! Thanks for the vid :) Emily + Tom
May I ask....why is such a beautiful beach overlooked by many? We're hopefully coming out in May and looking to stay in St Pete, or surrounding areas...and watch these videos with keen interest.
We think the main reason other neighboring beach towns (mainly Clearwater Beach, St Pete Beach, Madeira Beach, and Treasure Island) tend to be busier is because they offer so much more in terms of bars, restaurants, and shopping. Indians Shores is more of an old Florida beach town and is primarily residential. While you will still have a few good food, drink, and entertainment options within a mile or two, you won't have hundreds within walking distance as you do in some of the other places. So it's a trade-off. Areas with more to do tend to have more crowds. If you are content just relaxing on the beach most of the day and don't care much about dining out and/or nightlife, Indian Shores is a great place to stay. More often than not, we chose it over the more popular spots. We hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching!
It's because our little beach town is mostly residential and just a little sprinkling of Airbnb. Indian Rocks beach and Reddington beach are more "touristy". So, its practically a private beach for its local residents 💙
Thanks for watching, Erica. Swimming in the Gulf really depends on your cold tolerance. Some people will swim in it almost year round., but we generally only swim between mid-April through mid-November.
We certainly understand why you want to keep it on the DL, Michael! Hopefully we won't have to worry about turning into the next St Pete Beach anytime soon. Thanks for watching!
We do appreciate the concern, but this is just one day making one video... far from our regular diets. We do agree though that if we were to eat like this regularly we would be well on our way to some health issues!

I'm going to Indian Shores in March. I can't wait and I'm really looking forward to it!
That's exciting! Indian Shores is a lot of fun. We hope you have a great time!
Owl Pacino 🦉 is the cutest name for an owl! All the birds looked so cute and full of character😍
Yeah, all the birds on display are lifers that will never be able to be released back into the wild due to permanent disability, so they are pretty social and definitely have no fear of people!

The beaches of Florida are truly beautiful
You sure won't get any disagreement from us on that one!
Just wish they had more wave action.
Beautiful area of lots to do ❤
We agree, Ultan. Seriously underrated beach town!
thanks for the info on Indian Shores 😇like76
Our pleasure. Thank you so much for watching!
That sunset was gorgeous. Florida sunsets are awesome.
Yeah, it was definitely one of the better ones we've seen this year. Florida sunsets are hard to beat. Thanks for watching, Ron!
Love the videos!

Thank you, Jessica. Indian Shores really is a beautiful place, and we're so happy to be able to share the beauty with our viewers!
Wow! To find a beach this beautiful and empty on a sunny Saturday afternoon is amazing!
Yeah that beach is normally not too busy but we were a bit shocked to find it that empty on a Saturday afternoon!
Good vid for some basics of the area. I will be there in march. Thank you!

May I ask....why is such a beautiful beach overlooked by many? We're hopefully coming out in May and looking to stay in St Pete, or surrounding areas...and watch these videos with keen interest.
We think the main reason other neighboring beach towns (mainly Clearwater Beach, St Pete Beach, Madeira Beach, and Treasure Island) tend to be busier is because they offer so much more in terms of bars, restaurants, and shopping. Indians Shores is more of an old Florida beach town and is primarily residential. While you will still have a few good food, drink, and entertainment options within a mile or two, you won't have hundreds within walking distance as you do in some of the other places.
So it's a trade-off. Areas with more to do tend to have more crowds. If you are content just relaxing on the beach most of the day and don't care much about dining out and/or nightlife, Indian Shores is a great place to stay. More often than not, we chose it over the more popular spots.
We hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching!
It's because our little beach town is mostly residential and just a little sprinkling of Airbnb. Indian Rocks beach and Reddington beach are more "touristy". So, its practically a private beach for its local residents 💙
Wow, the water looks perfect in September! What times of the year can you comfortably swim in the Gulf?
Thanks for watching, Erica. Swimming in the Gulf really depends on your cold tolerance. Some people will swim in it almost year round., but we generally only swim between mid-April through mid-November.
👍👍
Indian shores coffee also sells literally the best cinnamon buns on satand Sundays
Oh that's great to know. Next time we visit, we'll be sure to grab one!
@Explorcation while you are there, you guys should check out a cute store called the Sea Gypsy too
@@TheZombiecowmeat thank you for the recommendation!
Stop letting tourists know about Indian Shores, it's my favorite local beach and we can't have it over run like St. Pete beach.
We certainly understand why you want to keep it on the DL, Michael! Hopefully we won't have to worry about turning into the next St Pete Beach anytime soon. Thanks for watching!
@@Explorcation Next time visit Dog and Parit pub, great food and right across the street from my favorite part of the beach.
@@michaelamos75 will do, Michael. We appreciate the recommendation!
Talk about spiking your blood sugar, you folks eat way too much sugar and carbs, on your way to diabetes.
We do appreciate the concern, but this is just one day making one video... far from our regular diets. We do agree though that if we were to eat like this regularly we would be well on our way to some health issues!
