Dunedin is a city in Pinellas County, Florida, set along the Gulf Coast between Clearwater and Tarpon Springs, within the Tampa–St. Petersburg–Clearwater metropolitan area. Its name comes from Dùn Èideann, the Scottish Gaelic name for Edinburgh, and that Scottish connection remains one of the city's defining features, celebrated through Highland games, Celtic festivals, and a visible sense of heritage downtown. With a population of about 36,100 in the 2020 census, Dunedin is the fifth-largest city in Pinellas County. The city grew from citrus-growing and settlement roots into a mid-twentieth-century tourist and snowbird destination, drawn by its beaches—chief among them Honeymoon Island—and its compact, attractive downtown. Today that downtown is the heart of local life, known for its restaurants, craft breweries, independent shops, and arts scene, all within a few walkable blocks. The Pinellas Trail, a regional rail-trail, runs through the city and links it by bike and foot to the wider county. Baseball is another long-standing institution. TD Ballpark hosts the Toronto Blue Jays for spring training, a relationship spanning roughly half a century, and is home to the Dunedin Blue Jays minor-league club. The spring-training season brings a reliable rhythm of visitors each winter, while the rest of the year the city's beaches, parks, and waterfront keep it a destination in its own right. For residents, Dunedin offers a combination that is increasingly rare on Florida's Gulf Coast: a genuine, walkable downtown, direct access to state-park beaches at Honeymoon and Caladesi Islands, and a strong local identity rooted in Scottish heritage. It appeals to those seeking a coastal Pinellas County lifestyle with more character and less sprawl than nearby commercial beach towns, while remaining within easy reach of Clearwater, St. Petersburg, and Tampa.

Dunedin takes its name from Dùn Èideann, the Scottish Gaelic name for Edinburgh, Scotland.
