- Clearwater Beach has consistently been ranked best beach by various organizations and has garnered a reputation as an ideal vacation destination for people of all ages from all around the world. Families vacation here as do couples and young adults. From some of the best seafood restaurants that Florida’s gulf coast has to offer, to recreational activities that include boat rides, fishing, and parasailing, to word-class hotels and resorts, Clearwater Beach offers something for everyone!Clearwater Beach Picture Gallery Copyright © 2024 Gabriela BranisteanuClearwater Beach includes a resort area and a residential area on a barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico in Pinellas County on the west-central coast of Florida.
Clearwater Beach is an immaculate white sandy beach with beautiful calm blue waters that are perfect for swimming. Trip Advisor named it the nation's #1 beach in 2018. Caladesi Island, off the north end of the beach, was recognized as the nation's best by Dr. Beach in 2008.
The crystal-clear waters of the gulf make it a popular beach for watersports, snorkelling, parasailing and jet skiing. The area also offers shopping, restaurants, miniature golf, fishing charters, and "pirate ship" cruises. Clearwater Beach really is a paradise for those who love the sun, sea and sand.
The climate at Clearwater Beach is mild and warm throughout the year, with beautiful tropical plants and palms lining the beach. Few beach towns have it all, but Clearwater is one of those rare and precious jewels. The area averages 361 fabulous days of sunshine per year. And it even holds the record for consecutive sunny days at 768—that’s more than two years of straight sun!
Besides the beaches, there is Clearwater Beach's inviting, small-town atmosphere. There are literally hundreds of things to do here. Sightseeing and dolphin cruises set sail all day long. Kids will love seeing the sea turtles, dolphins and other rescued sea creatures being cared for at Clearwater Marine Aquarium. At Clearwater Marine Aquarium, you will find Winter the Dolphin, star of the "Dolphin Tale" movies. Winter swims with a prosthetic tail and the movies about her triumphs have struck a chord with adults and children who identify with the dolphin's struggles.
Beautiful white sand and clear, shallow water make this beach an ideal playground for families. From the activity along the palm-lined Beach Walk Promenade to the views from Pier 60, you’re sure to find your perfect spot in the sand on Clearwater Beach.
It’s no wonder why visitors from around the world (especially snow birds) flock to Clearwater to swim in the crystal clear water. A constant supply of warm weather (temps range from low 70s in the winter to low 90s in the summer) and close proximity to two airports (St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport and Tampa International Airport) make planning a vacation here a no-brainer.
If Clearwater Beach had a theme song, it would be “Walkin’ on Sunshine.” This fun, friendly, casual beach town is always abuzz with activity and good vibes!
