The Kapok Tree

👍👍 This beautiful Bombax tree, located adjacent to the Museum of Fine Arts in Downtown St. Pete, flowers only once a year. Luckily, we visited in mid-February when the tree was in full bloom!

BIKE PARK NORTHPORT

👍👍 Great lil intermediate romp in the woods. Impressive effort by the people maintaining the trail to get it cleaned up & rideable after the hurricane! It's still being cleaned up & dialed in, in certain sections, but completely rideable & well worth your time.

Hector House Plaza

Park

👍👍 Hector House was where Punta Gorda signed the charter making it a city. The House was torn down, but the Plaza remains in remembrance.
