Things to do on Clearwater Beach

Enjoy Clearwater Beach White Sugar Sand and more...

The city of Clearwater is over 100 years old, and is known for being perfect for a visit at any time of the year. Blessed with an abundance of natural beauty, you will find gorgeous views here of pristine sands and crystal clear waters, and this part of the world also boasts some of the best marine life around.

If you take to the waters, expect to find stingrays, sharks, dolphins, and turtles, to name but a few species found here.

As well as some amazing beach life, Clearwater is also home to vibrant shopping, dining, and sporting venues, so whatever you choose to do, you doubtless won’t be bored. Clearwater lies close to the Gulf of Mexico, so you can also expect warm breezes that make many visitors feel like they don’t want to leave.

1. Clearwater Aquarium has a strong dedication to rehabilitation of aquatic life, and there is a clear message of environmental education here. The aquarium is most well known for its resident dolphin Winter who inspired the story Dolphin Tale which featured Morgan Freeman. At the aquarium you can expect to see such marine life as dolphins, turtles, otters, sharks, and can even get up close with stingrays. The emphasis here is also on an interactive experience and you can even feed the stingrays or pelicans that live at the aquarium. There are also tours of the marine hospital and all the profits go to the rehabilitation and ultimate release of the aquatic life here.
2. Pier 60 is a fishing pier and something of a Clearwater powerhouse. The pier measures an impressive 1,080 feet and comes with a park, bait hours, telescopes, and picturesque viewing pavilions. At the bait house you can stock up on everything you need for a successful day’s fishing and then fish off the end of the pier for local species like Spanish mackerel, spotted trout, snook, snapper, and jacks. The pier is also open and lit at night, so you can even enjoy some night fishing. Sunset is a great time to visit, not least because of the views, but also because of the entertainment options that set up along the pier such as musicians and jugglers.
3. Sand Key Park features a sandy beach and a park where you will find a whole host of fun beachside activities as well as park amenities. Sand Key Park is covered in cute beach cabanas as well as bathhouses and there is a dog park and a playground in the same area. If you are very lucky, you may also find endangered sea turtles laying their eggs on the beach, and there are also several species of endangered birds that inhabit the salt marsh next to the park.
4. Beach Walk  is basically a line of palm trees leading to a pedestrian area. This beachside thoroughfare twists and turns through the Clearwater Beach area and you will pass a whole host of quaint local businesses on the way. These include venues such as old-fashioned ice cream parlors as well as boutique arts and crafts shops, so this is the perfect place to stop and browse for some souvenirs. It also offers you an ideal way to stroll around Clearwater and take in the best of the local action and atmosphere.
