    About Shawna

    Shawna Calvert leads The Calvert Home Team at 27North Realty on a simple belief: give more than you take, and everything else follows. She closes 100+ transactions a year across Tampa Bay, more than half waterfront, and ranked #1 in Apollo Beach by sales volume — Stellar MLS, Jan 2025 to Aug 2026. MiraBay, Symphony Isles, Bimini Bay, Andalucía, Waterset, you name it — she knows the neighborhoods in Apollo Beach, Ruskin, Riverview and Sun City Center. On the water she starts where buyers get surprised: elevation and flood insurance, then the depth of the canal at low tide, bridge clearance, and what a lift is rated to hold. Before real estate, two decades running institutional pharmacy operations. She lives in MiraBay.

    Is There Really a Beach in Apollo Beach?

    Yes, and it's beautiful. Why you can't swim at the Apollo Beach Nature Preserve, where locals swim instead, and the famous Gulf beaches an easy drive away.
