Swigwam Beach Bar
The Swigwam (affectionately dubbed Swiggy's by the locals) has for years provided food, fun and drink to surf and sand lovers. While many "beach" bars are actually located poolside adjacent to the beach, the Swigwam offers the best of both worlds. One side of the bar is poolside, the other beach. Located behind the Travelodge on St. Pete Beach, the Swigwam is a tiki-style hut and full liquor bar. A single step is all that separates patrons from the white sugar sand beach leading to the Gulf of Mexico. Live music six days per week and drink
