Explore Pass A Grille Beach, Florida, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pass A Grille Beach, Florida. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Florida or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Pass A Grille Beach.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Pass A Grille Beach unfolds as a thin, sun-bleached ribbon of sand where the horizon dissolves into the rhythmic pulse of the Gulf of Mexico. It lies 4.7 miles south-southwest of Gulfport, FL (from Gulfport, FL: bearing 207°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south-southwest of Saint Petersburg. Salt-heavy air clings to the skin, carrying the scent of drying kelp and the faint, metallic tang of distant thunderstorms that frequently darken the afternoon sky. To the east, the quiet waters of the Pinellas County Aquatic Preserve provide a sanctuary for wading birds, their stillness contrasting with the restless energy of the surf. Just a mile across the water, the silhouette of Pine Key marks the boundary of the channel, while the pale, fine-grained earth yields slowly to the encroachment of high tide. The light here possesses a peculiar, liquid quality, turning the late afternoon into a study of amber and bruised violet as the sun sinks behind the waves.
Pass A Grille Beach maintains a character defined by its preservation of a slower era, resisting the frantic pace of modern development to favor a neighborhood of low-slung cottages and weathered wooden walkways. The local economy relies on the steady migration of seasonal visitors and a small fleet of independent merchants who cater to those seeking refuge from the mainland’s intensity. Historically, the area functioned as a modest outpost for fishermen, a legacy still felt in the unpretentious docks and the casual, barefoot atmosphere that defines the daily routine. Far from the industrial rush, life here is measured by the shifting tides and the occasional transit of boats navigating toward Jacks Boat Basin. Even with Frenchman Creek flowing miles away and the distant, silent history held within the Portavant Indian Mound, the immediate focus remains on the shoreline, where the land meets the water in a quiet, enduring equilibrium.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
