Head east to the water, then turn north. A sidewalk winds its way for miles. Along the way you will pass the new St. Pete Pier (with restaurants, ice cream, playground, splash pad, etc), the History Museum, a children's play ground, tennis courts, beach volleyball, and gorgeous views of Tampa Bay. It's a great place to ride a bike or go for a jog.
