History

Hernando Beach, situated northwest of Tampa, FL, is a picturesque waterfront canal community. Developed by Charlie Sasser between 1959 and 1965, the area's unique geography was shaped by earth sourced from coastal mining operations and extensive dredging efforts. The north section of Hernando Beach boasts deep and wide canals leading directly to the Gulf of Mexico.

However, the area's growth faced regulatory challenges when wetland development restrictions were imposed in 1971, halting further expansion. This led to a legal dispute between Sasser, the state authorities, and the Hernando County Commission, resulting in the preservation of Hernando Beach's natural state.
