In the little commercial area of Tierra Verde, I came upon Billy’s Stone Crab Restaurant, which I had heard of. It was too soon after breakfast to eat anything, but I went up to the rooftop bar for a coke and to check out the view. The little island behind the restaurant is being subdivided by developers, but the housing crisis has resulted in few buyers.
Tierra Verde Florida
Tierra Verde is a little island in the bay between Pass-A-Grille and the mainland of St. Petersburg. It is primarily residential, but there are some spectacular secluded coves and inlets.
