| Indian Shores is proud host for the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary. This no-profit organization is dedicated to the "rescue, repair, recuperation and potential release" of rehabilitated, sick and injured wild birds that are native to the Gulf coast of Pinellas county. Native birds found on the Gulf coast include cormorants, brown pelicans and white egrets. Bernie Higgins, songwriter of "Key Largo", performed benefits that helped to raise the funds that initially established the sanctuary. This Non-profit organization is operated solely through public contributions. It is open to the public every day and admission is free.
Indian Shores is almost three miles of white sand and has a population of 1500 or so residents. It's the perfect getaway for those who want to escape the harsh northern winters and holiday crowds. A wide variety of accommodations, shops and restaurants make it easy to visit and even easier to stay. |
