Great gift shop with many variations in a nature theme from items to plant, with glass, stuffed and other animals and plants. Household goods with nature themes. I purchased a beautiful flamingo abstract soft T-shirt 50 SPF for 75% off. I love the huge enamel
Turtle and mini animal and birds like the cardinal. It is free to enter the gift shop which is the same lobby as Great Explirations Children Museum. This is a great place to find a nature gift that supports this great Sunken Gardens

I ran across Sunken Gardens on Groupon. The tickets brought on Groupon saved $4 at the gate. The parking was limited, but it wasn't too much of a hassle to get a park spot. The front gate was friendly and helpful. I loved the different varieties at Sunken Gardens. Wild life, trees and plants was a great combination. It gives the vibe of visiting a miniature zoo. I highly recommend Sunken Gardens! Enjoy.

Beautiful pathways with even prettier views. Sunken Gardens is conveniently located close to downtown St. Pete while still providing a serene getaway. We purchased our tickets ahead of time with Groupon which cut the price from $30/pp to $18/pp. Beautiful option if you're looking for a peaceful place to enjoy nature!

Great price! Groupon was $18 for 2 adults. The birds and koi are adorable and we got so many beautiful photos with the trees and flowers in the background.

We went on the Flamingo weekend celebration. Arrived at about 1230, and took us almost exactly one hour to get through the line. Could have used some more assistance checking people in, as the process was extremely slow. Better prep for a weekend that I'm thinking they knew would be busier. The gardens themselves were really nice, and there was a musician playing which added great ambiance. The grounds were gorgeous, with so many different plants to view, along with several water features that added to the serenity.

Art inspired from new arrival #46 Flamingo. Beautiful gardens and home for many flamingos. Hidden wonder here in St. Petersburg. Lovely gardens and many surprises as you walk the trail...

Hidden gem in a beautiful city of St. Petersburg. We spent a lovely afternoon walking the gardens and admiring all the greenery in the middle of unusually cold for Florida day. Gardens are very well kept and the team that checked us in was extremely friendly.

The ladies at the front are so nice especially with kids they 'put the kids in charge of the map.' They have cute shop, they have a variety of gifts to select from. Some of the items are a bit pricey, but the proceeds go to the garden to help fix it up and make it look beautiful. It is definitely worth going to, especially to get some fresh air and enjoy nature and its beauty. I highly recommend.

I have visited Sunken Gardens several times through the years when I travel to St Pete. This is a garden over 100 years old with an interesting history. On my recent trip I noticed they added a small history center and I was pleasantly surprised to learn more about this gem. It is well worth the cost and a peaceful way to spend a few hours. You will also find flamingos and other exotic birds. Staff are always friendly and we even noticed them walking around with the birds, interacting with guests and training the birds to do tricks.
