Depends on what you like. Ft. Desoto has award winning beaches and a lot of room to explore. You can take a ride out to Egmont Key. Homosassa has lots of beautiful, shallow water where manatees gather this time of year. Anna Maria Island on the coast west of Bradenton is a very quaint, old fashioned beach town. There's always Busch Gardens and the Aquarium in Tampa. Tarpon Springs is a small Greek community with lots of fishing and sponge docks.
BTW, St. Petersburg is sometimes called St. Pete (no 's). They'll know you're a tourist if you say it St. Pete's.
