    Is Apollo Beach, FL a good place to live?

    SShawna Calvert
    November 3, 2026

    For a lot of people, yes, especially if the water is part of the dream. From Apollo Beach it's about 25 minutes by boat to downtown Tampa or downtown St. Pete, and about 45 minutes to the Gulf. On weekends our neighbors are out at Beer Can Island and the MiraBay flats. Day to day, the town has grown up fast: Walmart, Starbucks, Chipotle, sushi, bakeries and coffee shops, with Costco and Target expected to open in 2027. The bigger question is which Apollo Beach fits you. Some neighborhoods are social, with activity coordinators and golf carts. Older streets with no HOA give you more freedom. Tell me how you picture a normal Tuesday here and I'll point you to the right streets.

    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.
