Sunny Florida Found in Clearwater and Tampa Bay
With warm, sunny, beaches, fabulous sunsets and crystal clear water, Clearwater is a great place for a weekend getaway or a week at the beach.

Boaters will find the calm clear waters of the Gulf a great alternative to the rough waters of the Atlantic Ocean. A place where fishermen often target, Snook, Tarpon, Redfish and Sea Trout.
Another option is to rent a personal watercraft. It’s a great way to explore the area. Nature lovers may rent a kayak or canoe so they can get up close to birds and other wildlife.
Try a Pirate Cruise, it’s a great way to see the Gulf of Mexico and not have to do anything but enjoy the ride and scenery. If it’s a party you’re looking for, try the Pier 60 on Clearwater Beach. Every afternoon they throw a Sunset Party similar to the one at Mallory Square in Key West, Florida. The Pier is also a great place for a drink or a long walk down the pier. Fishing is also great at the pier with anglers targeting Snook, Drum, Redfish, Pompano, Croakers, Sheepshead and the occasional Cobia.
A sidewalk snakes along Clearwater Beach and is lit at night for walkers, bike riders and roller bladders. It’s relatively safe and a great way to get some exercise while enjoying the beach.
