The region contains more than twenty miles of Gulf of Mexico beaches and the warm, sunny winter climate attracts tourist from across the USA, Canada, and Europe. The phrase was coined in 1952 by St. Petersburg, Florida, mayor Samuel G. Johnson.[1] Cities and countiesThe Suncoast region includes the western central Florida cities of St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Dunedin, Tarpon Springs, Tampa, Brandon, Ruskin, and Bradenton, among others.
