This small island park is a short walk from downtown St. Pete. It seems EVERYTHING in town happens at the small bridge onto Demens Landing. There are picnic areas, restrooms, a great view of Tampa Bay and The Pier and the place is lovely at night. Folks fish off the sea wall and most catch a lot of fish. Dolphins... More

We have enjoyed numerous times at Demon's. It's a place to park the car, walk and meander around the marina to enjoy the beautiful sail boats, yachts, etc. Saturdays, mid day, are fun as we watch different levels of sailing classes from beginners on up. The children really seem to have a handle on those sails! It's a delightful atmosphere,... More

Hard to call this a "park," though technically it is. It's a jetty that has the boat slips for the Yacht Club on one side, and boat slips for the St. Petersburg Marina on the other, manicured lawns and picnic tables everywhere... Families seem to enjoy this area, and it's a great place to sit and ponder life while enjoying... More

This is a small park surrounded by marinas. Perfect spot to bring your own lunch, several picnic tables. Lovely place to look across the water and watch small private planes take off and land at an executive airport. Very peaceful place downtown.

Just a hop, skip and a jump from all that downtown St Petersburg has to offer. Demens Landing is best enjoyed strolling along the waterfront. There's Tampa Bay, the boats, the birds, the fish, the scenery! Catch sight of 'The Pier' before they tear it down; watch small planes take off/land at the adjacent private airport; see all the boats... More

My wife and I walked here from the Vinoy early Saturday morning, what a very nice quiet park, saw a family of dolphins in the inlet.

Found this one almost by accident. Love the isolation from the passing traffic since you have to cross a bridge off the beaten path to get there. Love the marina and water views. Wide open grassy area is a great place to run and play with kids and dogs.

Small park, limited parking and amenities. The view is great, right on the water but I would recommend venoy park over this one.

Signs state that parking is for marina owners and guests only but if you go over the little bridge into the park there is public parking at the end of park along the water with no parking fees or meters. There can be sun bums in the park but if you just ignore them they don't bother anyone. Covered picnic... More

I have attended the American Stage Theaters, Theater in the Park at Demens landing a few times, and found the park to be really lovely. Well maintained, and a beautiful location on the water.
