City Landmarks


- Pier 60: Clearwater Beach, positioned to the west, has become a renowned destination for witnessing the sunset. The beach hosts a nightly sunset celebration that showcases various performances, including those by musicians, firebreathers, dancers, and more.
- Beach Walk: one of the most exceptional beaches, visitors can relish a refreshing swim, bask in the sun under a rented beach umbrella, and discover exquisite seashells along the water's edge.
- Clearwater Dolphin-Watching Tour: The Gulf of Mexico is renowned for its wild dolphin sightings, and this Clearwater Beach tour provides an opportunity to explore these pods. Step aboard the Little Toot, a tugboat-style boat that generates a substantial wake, enticing dolphins to engage in playful antics.
- Kayaking Clearwater: Kayaking in Clearwater, Florida, offers a picturesque and serene experience as you paddle through the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
- Flyboarding Adventure: Prepare to be awestruck by the breathtaking views of the Gulf of Mexico as you elevate your perspective above the emerald waves. This exhilarating flyboarding experience stands apart from other aquatic activities.

Beach Spots
- Clearwater Beach Beach is a vibrant hub of activity, offering a burst of color and energy throughout the day. Serving as the focal point for numerous Florida vacationers, it beckons you to revel in its soft, white sands and remarkably clear waters. Embrace the lively atmosphere and unwind on this picturesque stretch of beach.
- Sand Key Park: Nestled just beyond the causeway from the lively Clearwater Beach, Sand Key Park provides a serene escape that feels like a world apart. Revel in ample space to relax, surrounded by stunning white sands, nature trails, and a charming small fishing pier.
- Honeymoon & Caladesi Islands: These two state parks have some of the most beautiful beaches in St. Pete/Clearwater. Start your own love affair Honeymoon Island, named for the quaint honeymooners' cottages built here in 1940 (they are no more, but the spirit of the place remains). Or take a ferry from Honeymoon Island to pristine Caladesi, where seabirds outnumber humans.
- Redington Shores: Nice beach area with lots of short-term rentals and businesses, worth checking out and probably a good place to invest in. Also, lots of retiree communities living the ultimate salt lifestyle in Florida.
- Indian Rocks Beach: Small beach area with just a few local businesses; a great spot to park your car and walk down to the beach to catch the sunset.
- Sand Key Park: Similar to Fort De Soto. However, this is a few-entry park next to Clearwater Beach where you can bring your loved ones and enjoy a full beach day. Offers showers and BBQ spots.
