This is a tough place to park if your drive a pickup, or a large SUV.

There are about 20 pending on how people wedge in here. Camouflaged between two motels is this unpaved, little spot.

If you aren't paying attention, you'll drive right by this little place. You'll meet all kinds of friendly people out here for a walk. Another nice feature is the sidewalk which runs north-south for about a mile at the entrance. Two boardwalk bridges take you over the dune. There are no covered picnic areas, but there are clean restrooms, benches, and showers at this well-maintained entrance. I like to get here close to 8:00 AM and leave by that time. The parking lot is pretty big, but people who drive are smart and it fills up pretty quick by noon at the latest. It's located a few hundred yards south of The Bilmar Resort (which houses the great beach bar called "Sloppy Joe's") on 104th Avenue. A beautiful setting that puts you in a great mood to relax. Gulf View park has an Old Florida flavor when you enter the beach over a sea oats covered sand dune. Gulf View Park - Treasure Island Public Beach Access This where I used to park everyday.when it was free. Just be aware that most people crowd this area down by the beach during high use days/seasons.but walk a couple minutes either direction and you'll pretty much be by yourself. The sand is raked regularly by a big tractor and the water is outstanding. The city does a great job of keeping this location clean.
