Sunken Gardens | St Petersburg FL | [+ A BONUS Secret Garden Tour]

The St Pete Sunken Gardens is one of the most popular tourist spots and one of the most beautiful places in all of St Petersburg FL. But many people don't realize that there is another beautiful (and FREE) option for garden lovers just a few miles away.

In this video, we take you along with us as we tour both of these amazing St Petersburg FL attractions. We hope this video will help you to experience the beauty of the St. Pete Sunken Gardens and Gizella Kopsick Arboretum, and maybe even plan your own trip.

Located in St Petersburg FL and Pinellas County, the St Pete Sunken Gardens are a botanical paradise offering a collection of over 50,000 tropical plants representing over 5,000 species. They are also home to a flock of Chilean Flamingos. Just a few miles away, the free Gizella Kopsick Arboretum offers a collection of over 500 palms and cycads representing over 150 species.
