If lounging on the white sands between Pass-A-Grille and Clearwater Beach isn’t social enough for you, a visit to John’s Pass & Village Boardwalk (150 Boardwalk Pl., Madeira Beach, 727/393-8230, www.johnspass.com [1], open daily) will allow you to fulfill your daily quota of people-watching.
The centrally located reconstituted “fishing village” is still home to plenty of charter boats and fishing expeditions, but the primary draw is shopping in the dozens of tourist-kitsch shops, noshing on fried seafood, and catching a sunset.
