Dunedin: A Charming Village and a Vibrant Community

Just five minutes from your MacAlpine Place home, Dunedin’s walkable downtown area charms residents and in-the-know visitors alike. Stroll down Main Street, which begins at the marina, and enjoy art galleries and unique shops. Dining options include casual bistros, a variety of ethnic food—including, naturally, Scottish options—and local breweries. Don’t miss the Green Market, every Friday from October to April, for a chance to stock your kitchen with artisan foods and the freshest produce.

In addition to art and gift galleries downtown, Dunedin features both a Historical Museum and a Fine Art Center. The first features an extensive collection of photos and artifacts documenting Florida history. At the second, you’ll find art exhibits, classes for all ages, and workshops. In January, the Downtown Dunedin Art Festival takes over Main Street, showcasing a broad spectrum of mediums including sculpture, photography, jewelry, mixed media and more.

The marina in Downtown Dunedin is a treat for all residents. Consider chartering a boat for a big celebration or a quiet evening. Prefer to stay on land? Edgewater Park is a popular spot along the marina, with a playground, gazebo, and picnic tables. It is a great place to listen to concerts!
