Sarah DunnApril 7, 2014What a great museum! Admission isn't cheap but is worth it for special exhibits like the Warhol. Cafe has excellent wine and gazpacho, and the gardens are cute. Don't forget to make a wish at the tree
John McCombsOctober 21, 2018Great body of work. Be sure to follow the audio guide numbers as best you can since it is linear, and be sure to spend as much time as you can at the museum. Take advantage of tours too!

Angela WaltersNovember 30, 2014Breath taking and awe inspiring museum. The collection of Dali works is impressive. Take your time through the gallery and be sure to talk to the docents. They are full of knowledge.
- DonnaDecember 24, 2014Amazing collection and very knowledgeable (and entertaining) docents will give you the scoop. Grab the audio tour as well for more detail on individual paintings. Hurry in for the Picasso comparisons
AmateurConciergeApril 16, 2017Absolute must do when visiting the area. Great permanent collection from one of the most prolific artists of the modern era. The free tours are pretty entertaining. save time for the garden
Marie La RueAugust 7, 2018Amazing place. Get the audio guide and learn more about Dali’s artistic processes and vision. Adjacent garden is wonderful.
Maria HenkelJanuary 11, 2019Nice body of work from Dali’s life. The Magritte co-exhibit was fun and the immersive aspects were very unique for a museum. The cafe is also fast and delicious!!
Daniel GraysonJanuary 17, 2020The docent tours run often (every 30 minutes during most of the day) and are excellent. I think my docent has a little crush on Dali.
Abbie HarrisJanuary 6, 2017A significant collection of works by Salvador Dali--the best outside of Spain. Free audio guide. See paintings you've studied in school or seen in books! Nice small garden with hedge maze.
Nicole CarterMarch 3, 2015The audio guides are great to listen about the pieces of art. You will learn a lot. The little cafe is nice and USF students get free parking and free admission. Make sure to go into tge garden.
Cody CarrollApril 3, 2015Superb! Do yourself a favor and experience Dalí while you're in St. Petersburg. You're going to need a solid 3 hours to get a good feel for the his work exhibited here. Great collection!
DanAugust 4, 2017Absolutely loved this place. Great architecture and art. One of the must visit places in St. Pete. Do the guided tour if possible. So informative. Pricey admission but worth it.
Ian HoughtonMarch 14, 2016I really great place that also hold pretty cool events too. Thursday's are the days to go. After 5pm it's only $10 per person. Also watch out for special showings they have. Currently Dali and Disney.
Donna LuLuDecember 23, 2013Take the free guided tour and then do the free self-guided tour. Learned so much you would never get on your own. The museum is beautiful and the tour guide was incredible. Worth every penny.
KrystallSeptember 4, 2014Love love love love this place. They have some of his masterworks on display that you can stare at for hours and still find something new. A must see if you are in St. Pete.
nidhiDecember 29, 2012Great little museum. Take a free tour (or two- different perspectives from different docents) and then wander around for a few hours. You can spend 3 hours here.
Josie RossDecember 28, 2014Beautiful! I love the art on the inside and the creative outside! I've been here many times, and it never lets down. Food variety could be wider...but overall, fun trip for an Florida vacation!- DanJuly 28, 2017A really cool museum dedicated to the art of Dali that's in a place you wouldn't expect. Really lovely architecture too. Don't miss this if you're in the area.
- Samantha WoodMarch 31, 2019Have a surreal experience exploring the artwork and life of Salvador Dali! In addition to artwork permanently on display, exhibits rotate throughout the year. Make sure to stop by the Avant-garden!
Karen DieterJuly 11, 2013Gorgeous new building that truly suits the surrealist masterpieces...much better than the old building. A definite must-see for anyone in the Tampa Bay area.
Melissa MeierAugust 12, 2018My favorite place to go when I visit family in the area. Don't miss out on the tour, they have so many stories behind some pieces you would never know.
spring123March 24, 2016Don't miss a chance to visit the largest private collection of Dali artwork in the world! It's absolutely free for USF students! Grab an audio guide or enjoy the docent led tours (every hour).
Michael NOVA NovillaApril 14, 2013The Dali Museum is a MUST SEE while here in St. Pete! They created a world-class building worthy of Dali's incredible masterpieces! Oh and thank Amy for all of her hard work getting it built!
Bethany CulpMarch 26, 2013The architecture of the museum is as surreal as the work of Salvador Dali. I high recommend going on the tour to gain further insight into the mind of one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
Sasha AhlesNovember 11, 2016Easily my favorite art museum that I've had the pleasure of visiting. Although to be fair, Dalí is one of my favorite artists, so I am a little biased.- Donna LuLuNovember 24, 2013Take the free tour with the guide & then go back & take the free self-guided tour. Even art newbies will fall in love with his work. Can't wait to go back again.
CindyApril 7, 2014Just go!! What an experience. Take the tour with the guide and then walk thru again at your own pace. We stayed 4 hours and had a delicious lunch too.
Debra LermitteJanuary 23, 2015Fascinating to hear about Dali and see his paintings. His works are amazingly complex. The tours are free & very worthwhile. There was an exhibit on Picasso as well today. Wonderful!!
Connie ChiuDecember 5, 2015Such an amazing museum with great Dali exhibit and Escher. Architecture is stunning.
DoniaMarch 21, 2016Breath taking work from Dalí & cool building. Smaller than expected. Audio tour comes with ticket if wanted.
Rhea TriggersAugust 17, 2013At gala contemplating the Mediterranean Sea which at twenty meters becomes the portrait of Abraham Lincoln. Turn around and use your sunglasses to reflect the painting and you'll see the amazingness.
Christopher NasonMay 20, 2016Beautiful building! The problem is the exhibit isn't worth paying $25 to see.
Samra Bufkins, MJ, APRAugust 8, 2015This is a "must see" anytime you are in the area. The new building is a work of art in itself. The gift shop is fabulous.
Rick BendixJanuary 25, 2020This is a terrific small museum whose collection covers the entire span of Dali’s artistic career. The cafe and gift ship are outstanding.
Guto VieiraFebruary 23, 2016The gardens are great! But The exhibition Is awesome! I suggest The tour: it's free And very good!!!

Kitty IbarraJune 21, 2011Problem is the one in Spain curated by Dali himself is just breath taking.only pieces worth seeing are 80 photo etchings from goyas prints w/ drypoint & colored w/ pochpior on bfk.also a few masters
BRINK MagazineJune 18, 2012Dali's paintings alone should entice you to visit, but the building's architecture & the outdoor "Avant-Garden" are great activities, too-- don't miss out on them! www.brinkmagonline.com

Renaissance HotelsMay 31, 2012Think the dripping clocks are good? Wait till you see ‘Hallucinogenic Toreador’ in person. It’s brilliant and unnervingly surreal. For more local tips, follow us on 4sq or check out
