** ATTENTION: Starting September 10th, 2025, Pinellas County has begun a beach nourishment project, which is estimated to continue through January 2026. During this time, some sections of the beach and some beach access points will be closed as the project moves down the beach. For information on current and upcoming project areas, please visit: Pinellas.gov/projects/2025-pinellas-county-beach-nourishment-project/
Please understand that this schedule is out of our control and that noise can be expected while work is ongoing. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this causes, and we appreciate your understanding as the county helps to improve our beaches after the 2024 hurricanes. **
