St. Petersburg, Florida, is a beautiful destination for a Gulf vacation. The gorgeous blue waters make it the perfect beach town where you can boat, fish, and even golf.
Something you may not have considered is the wineries in the area, but they’re more than worth your time!
Here are a few St. Pete wineries worth exploring.
Sea Grapes
Sea Grapes Winery is not your average winery; it’s a winery lounge. They offer an expansive wine and beer selection as well as a specialty selection of wine cocktails. For bites to eat, they serve elevated charcuterie boards with unique creations from their chef, Ryan Watkins.
They also provide their signature “picnic basket” so that you can experience Sea Grapes anywhere you’d like. The team is happy to cater or host any special events you have coming up. Sea Grapes is a premier wine bar in St. Pete Beach and a place where you can have an unforgettable experience.
Florida Orange Groves Winery
For a St. Pete winery with a unique Florida twist to it, you have to visit Florida Orange Groves Winery. This is a tropical fruit winery, so its wines feature all the best fruits that you can find in Florida. They have 43 selections of wines to choose from! A fun fact about this winery is that they make the only wine in Florida allowed to be included in Disney’s Epcot International Food and Wine Festival!
Some of their tropical selections include mango, pineapple, and banana wines. The berry wines include blueberry, cherry, and peach, and the citrus wines include grapefruit, tangelo, and orange. You won’t find another St. Pete Beach winery like this!

They also serve up refreshing wine freezes, which are perfect for the beach, just a few steps away. They also have an excellent selection of hand-rolled cigars.
If that’s not enough, you can find a plethora of unique condiments. They have jams, jellies, spice rubs, marinades, and much more in their shop.
