A quiet community along the coast of Old Tampa Bay, Gandy offers a slower pace of life in Saint Petersburg, Florida. Gandy is named after the Gandy Bridge, connecting the neighborhood to Tampa, Florida across Old Tampa Bay.
Gandy is taken up by open land, energy plants, and suburban streets. Discover a variety of apartment communities in the neighborhood, along with many single-family homes. Residential areas are sectioned off from the coast, for the most part, but maintain a calming coastal vibe.
The shoreline is made up of marshes, woods, and industrial areas. But near the Gandy Bridge, you’ll discover some local gems such as The Getaway. This laidback, bayfront Tiki Bar offers top-notch coastal cuisine, an island-time vibe, and a welcoming atmosphere.
