Mustique Bay is a gated waterfront community of large single-family homes in Apollo Beach, in southern Hillsborough County near the Tampa Bay shoreline (Apollo Beach community guides, 2026). It is a small enclave rather than a sprawling master plan, with listing guides describing it as a private gated waterfront setting where many lots carry canal or open-bay access and boat dockage.
The community took shape in the early 2000s and has filled in over the years, with homes that skew large and waterfront, several offering docks, covered lifts, and direct or quick access to Tampa Bay (Apollo Beach real estate guides, 2026). Confirm the exact year built, the lot type, and the water access for any specific address, since canal, open-bay, and interior lots are not the same asset.
Because this is a waterfront enclave, the money is made or lost on the lot and the water, not the address alone. The drivers are the specific lot and its bay or canal access, the dock and lift, the elevation and FEMA flood zone, and the wind and flood insurance lines, all of which have to be read from the elevation certificate, the survey, and an insurance quote for the exact home.
The pitch is Apollo Beach boating life: a gated waterfront address with quick runs to Tampa Bay, marinas and waterfront dining nearby, and an easy reach of I-75, Tampa, and the airport. The work is the diligence: pull the elevation certificate, confirm the flood zone and any surge history, quote wind and flood insurance, and inspect the dock before you buy the view.
