Review:
Caladesi Island State Park can be found just a 10-15 minute drive away from Dunedin and is one of the best beach spots in the local area. It's quite close to Clearwater Beach too, so you can spend a full day here hopping between the two locations. Caladesi Island is well-suited for a huge range of activities from calming, relaxing sunbathing sessions to water sport adventures like kayaking and surfing. Fishing is also popular in this area too, but the island is only accessible by boat, so you'll need to pay for a ticket on a private charter or the Caladesi Island Ferry. The park is equipped with plenty of simple amenities like camping facilities, picnic areas, and more, but doesn't have any vendors, bars, or eateries, so you'll need to bring your own food and drinks.
