Clearwater Beach, beaches in Clearwater Beach, Clearwater

Consistently ranked among the best beaches in the U.S., Clearwater Beach pairs ultra-fine white sand with warm, gentle surf that's perfect for kids. The Beach Walk promenade links restaurants, hotels, and Pier 60, and metered lots plus the big garage at 490 Poinsettia Ave make parking manageable if you arrive before 10am on weekends.

Why our team sends guests here

Skip the beach-traffic headache entirely by taking the Jolley Trolley over the causeway and staying for the nightly sunset festival at Pier 60.
