🌴One of St.Pete’s most beautiful strolls right next to the beach!🥰 The Gizella Kopsick Palm Arboretum is a 2-acre waterfront park in St. Petersburg, Florida, featuring over 500 palms and cycads representing roughly 150 species from across the globe. It provides a quiet, tropical escape along the Tampa Bay waterfront next to Vinoy Park. Created in 1976 and dedicated in 1977 on Miss Gizella Kopsick’s 100th birthday. Funded by a stock donation from Miss Kopsick, a local resident and palm admirer. It was built on land that previously operated as a city miniature golf course. #stpete #stpetersburgfl #florida #arboretum
