A
Pier
St Pete's tourist pier is a long, wide, aging landmark. It culminates in an inverted, primary-colored pyramid that looks like a 3D Mondrian painting and houses an uninspired tourist trap. There are shops, a tiny aquarium, a bait house with rod rentals, dolphin cruises, bike rentals, several gulf-view restaurants (the best is an outpost of Tampa's Columbia Restaurant), and brown pelicans awaiting fishy handouts. Plans are afoot to tear it down and start from scratch; expect changes.
