The Wild Seafood Market Experience at John’s Pass

Wild Seafood Market offers anyone the ability to serve up the best tasting seafood dish in the comfort of their own kitchen. As a bonus, due to its location at John’s Pass Village, the market also offers a unique experience of epic views and the option to watch experts fillet fish directly on the dock.

Firstly, Enjoy John’s Pass Village and Boardwalk

At John’s Pass Village you can enjoy over 1,000 feet of boardwalk to stroll while admiring a glittering ocean view along this Intracoastal waterway. Created in September of 1848 by an aggressive hurricane that parted the land, Johns Pass was discovered by a pirate of the name John Levique. This is of course how the now turn-of-the-century fishing village received its name.

In 2022, Johns Pass continues to stand ground as Pinellas County’s #1 tourist attraction with over 100 merchants that have set up shop there. Options are endless with an array of restaurants and retail stores to sift through as well as exciting family-friendly activities. For instance, there are local fishing charter boats, dolphin sightseeing tours, boat rentals, parasailing, jet-skiing, and more. Additionally, many nights at Johns Pass are a host to live music at their various bars. The pearl white sandy shore of Madeira Beach also just steps away from ‘The Pass’ as the locals call it.
