Review:
Clearwater is what we imagine a beach town in Florida to look like: 2.5 miles of fine sand beaches, picturesque boardwalks, funky beach shacks, a beach festival every single night just because the sun is setting, and, most importantly, numerous ice cream shops all along the beach. Clearwater Beach is located on a narrow barrier island just across the water from Clearwater, northwest of Tampa.
You can rent a cabana or a beach umbrella and spend a day under the sun, walk along the bustling, lively Pier 60 or Clearwater Marina, take the family on a Pirate Cruise, or visit dolphins and other animals at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, where you can meet Winter, the star of the much loved movie Dolphin Tale.
