If you choose to visit in the fall, you’ll have a bit of a mixed bag as far as St. Pete Beach weather. The early weeks of fall bring highs in the mid-80s, but as winter creeps closer, high temperatures only reach into the 70s. As the temperatures fall, so too do the chances of rain.

In the winter, temperatures are a bit cooler, but they don’t get anywhere near the bitter chill that many other sections of the United States have to deal with. High temperatures sit in the 70s or perhaps the high 60s, while low temperatures can dip down into the 60s or high 50s. You almost certainly won’t have to worry about rain during the winter (and definitely no snow!).

Finally, the spring brings warmer temperatures nearly right away, with highs in the mid to high 70s at the beginning of the season. As it gets closer to summer, highs can even reach into the 80s. Low temperatures can range anywhere in the 60s and 70s. As far as rain, the only significant chances come toward the end of May.

What to Pack

The weather in St. Pete Beach is always warm and inviting, but the items that you’ll need to pack for your trip will change a bit depending on when you come. Any time of year, it’s a safe bet to bring some short-sleeved T-shirts and shorts, as well as comfortable walking shoes. You’ll also want to pack your camera and all your digital devices for entertaining yourself and capturing all the great memories you’re sure to make!

If you’re visiting in the summer, you’re bound to spend plenty of time in the water. So, you’ll want to be prepared! Bring some flip flops, a swimsuit or two, and all the beach equipment you might need, including chairs, an umbrella (this can double to protect you from showers!), and towels. Planning a trip in the winter? It might be worth it to bring a light jacket and perhaps even a pair of jeans. You’re probably best off leaving the flip flops at home, though.
