LODGING:

SHORT HISTORY:

Indians fished and hunted around PAG for 10K years. Ferry boats began bringing visitors to PAG from Tampa in 1857, thus the claims of PAG being “oldest resort on Central Florida’s West Coast”. The 1st homesteader officially arrived in 1886, 1st hotel opened in 1901 (Bonhomie). Supposedly the “Pass-a-Grille” name comes from the French phrase Passe Aux Grilleurs (the passageway of the grillers) in honor of the fisherman who camped and first settled in PAG.
