Tranquil coastal charm with easy access to urban amenities
Redington Shores, where Gulf Mariner is located, offers a quieter, more family-oriented atmosphere compared to some of the more tourist-heavy beaches in the area. This small, charming community provides a perfect balance of peaceful island living and convenient access to urban amenities.
The area surrounding Gulf Mariner is rich in natural beauty and outdoor recreational opportunities. Just a short walk away, residents can enjoy Del Bello Park, a spot perfect for connecting with nature and catching ocean views. The park features benches for relaxing with a book and outdoor exercise equipment for those looking to stay active. Constitution Park, another nearby green space, offers a playground for children, as well as basketball and volleyball courts for sports enthusiasts.
For those who love to explore local cuisine, Redington Shores and its neighboring communities offer a variety of dining options. The Salt Rock Grill, just a short drive away, is a popular spot known for its grilled fish and steaks, with beautiful views of the Intracoastal Waterway. For a more casual dining experience, residents can visit the Wahoo Bayside Pub and Grill, which serves fresh seafood in a laid-back atmosphere.
Shopping needs are easily met with several options in the vicinity. The Seminole City Center, about 4.5 miles away, offers a mix of retail stores, including HomeGoods and Ulta Beauty, as well as casual restaurants and a movie theater. For everyday necessities, a Winn-Dixie supermarket is conveniently located just south along Gulf Boulevard.
Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to the Seaside Seabird Sanctuary, a nonprofit rescue organization that rehabilitates and releases local birds. Visitors can stroll through the two-acre beachfront sanctuary and observe various species of birds, including pelicans, bluejays, and owls.
For families with children, the area is served by well-regarded schools. Bauder Elementary School, rated 8 out of 10 by GreatSchools, is known for its annual Science Expo that showcases projects from every student. Seminole Middle School and Seminole High School, both within a short drive, offer a range of academic and extracurricular programs to support student growth and development.
Convenient access to major airports and Gulf Coast destinations
While Redington Shores is primarily car-dependent, its location offers easy access to major transportation hubs and nearby cities. Gulf Boulevard serves as the main thoroughfare, connecting Redington Shores to other beach communities and providing a scenic drive along the coast.
For air travel, residents of Gulf Mariner have two convenient options. St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport is approximately 17 miles away, or about a 35-minute drive, offering domestic flights and some international services. For a wider range of flight options, Tampa International Airport is about 27 miles away, or a 45-minute drive, providing extensive domestic and international connections.
While public transit options are limited in the immediate area, the location of Gulf Mariner allows for easy exploration of nearby attractions.

This proximity allows residents to enjoy the tranquility of Redington Shores while having easy access to more bustling urban environments when desired.
For those who enjoy cycling, the area offers some biking opportunities, particularly along the beachfront. However, for longer trips or daily commutes, a car is typically the most practical option.
