A Day of Fun Beach Activities on Treasure Island

Treasure Island is known for its wide, sandy beaches and laid-back coastal charm—and Crystal Palms Beach Resort places you right at the heart of it all. Whether you’re here for a family vacation, a romantic getaway, or a weekend of pure relaxation, there’s no shortage of beachside fun just steps from your suite. Here are some of the best beach activities to enjoy during your stay.

 

Morning Beach Walks

There’s nothing quite like a peaceful morning stroll along the shoreline. The beach behind Crystal Palms stretches for miles, offering the perfect setting for early risers to take in the fresh air, collect treasures, or simply listen to the soothing sound of the waves.

 

Paddleboarding and Kayaking

For those who love to stay active, paddleboarding and kayaking are great ways to explore the calm waters of the Gulf. Rentals are available nearby, and the gentle waves make it ideal even for beginners. Glide across the water at your own pace and take in the beautiful coastal scenery from a new perspective.

 

Beach Games and Family Fun

The wide beaches of Treasure Island give families plenty of space to spread out and play. Bring a volleyball, frisbee, or paddleball set for some friendly competition. Sandcastle building is always a hit with kids, and the soft white sand makes it easy to get creative.

 

Sunset Watching

One of the most iconic activities in Treasure Island is simply watching the sunset. The Gulf Coast is famous for its breathtaking displays of color as the sun dips below the horizon. Find a cozy spot in the sand or take a seat on your private balcony at Crystal Palms and enjoy the show.

 

Beach Picnics

Pack your favorite snacks or pick up something from a nearby café and enjoy a picnic right on the beach. With the sound of waves and a sea breeze around you, dining alfresco takes on a whole new meaning. Bonus points for timing it with sunset.

 

Shell Collecting

Treasure Island lives up to its name with plenty of shelling opportunities, especially in the early morning or after a storm. Wander along the tide line and you’ll often find colorful shells, sand dollars, and the occasional piece of sea glass. It’s a peaceful activity that’s fun for all ages.

Relax and Soak Up the Sun

Of course, sometimes the best beach activity is no activity at all. Grab a good book, lay back in a beach chair, and soak up the warm Florida sun. With the Gulf breeze and soft surf in the background, it’s easy to let go of everyday stress.
