Beach Week Between Clearwater & St Pete

06/20/2026

One of my favorite breakfast spots anywhere on the Gulf Beaches is Proino Breakfast Club just over the bridge in Largo.

If you’ve never been there, do yourself a favor and try the Gyro Eggs Benedict. I’ve probably ordered it half a dozen times and it is absolutely off the charts.

What impresses me most is the consistency. The place is always spotless, the staff is always friendly, and every meal seems just as good as the last one.

The owners have done an amazing job creating a place that feels welcoming from the moment you walk in the door. As many of you know, I’m a big believer that great restaurants are built on great people, and this place proves it every day.

If you’re visiting our beaches or you’re a local looking for a great breakfast, it’s worth the short drive.

Have you been there? What’s your favorite thing on the menu?

On May 9, 1980, the unthinkable happened on Florida’s most iconic bridge.
During a violent storm, the freighter Summit Venture struck a support column of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge, causing a large section of the bridge to collapse into Tampa Bay.

In a matter of seconds, cars, trucks, and a Greyhound bus plunged into the darkness below.
Thirty-five lives were lost in one of the most tragic transportation disasters in Florida history.

But from tragedy came resilience.

The disaster forever changed bridge engineering, maritime navigation safety, and emergency response procedures across the United States. It also united the Tampa Bay community in grief, courage, and determination to rebuild stronger than before.

Today, the new Sunshine Skyway Bridge stands not only as an engineering marvel, but as a memorial to those who lost their lives and to the heroes who responded that day.

As producers of the Skyway Bridge Disaster documentary, we remain committed to preserving the history, honoring the victims, and sharing the remarkable stories of survival, bravery, and recovery that emerged from one of Florida’s darkest days.

We invite you to remember the lives affected, reflect on the lessons learned, and appreciate the enduring spirit of the Tampa Bay community.

“Remembering the lives, the heroes, and the legacy.”
