Clearwater Beach Travel Tips

  • Bask in the sunshine at Caladesi Island State Park, rated the best beach in the United States by the country's pre-eminent sand guru, "Dr. Beach."
  • Watch dolphins, sharks, otters, stingrays, turtles, and other sea creatures up close at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, a non-profit marine rescue center.
  • Say goodbye to another day at Sunsets at Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach, a nightly celebration with arts, crafts, street performers, and concerts.
  • Take a day trip north to Tarpon Springs, a popular 19th-century winter resort that later gained fame for its large Greek population and its sponge harvesting tradition. Visit the renowned Greek Sponge Docks and check out the Victorian architecture in the historic arts and antiques district.
  • Check out the 2008 World Series champs at Clearwater's Bright House Field, spring training home for the Philadelphia Phillies.
