Continue your outdoor adventures at the Booker Creek and Weedon Island Preserves and the breathtaking Honeymoon Island State Recreation Area––or for an indoor nature experience, you can come face to face with some of Clearwater Beach’s most exotic aquatic life at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Clearwater Beach has also played host to events as varied as the annual Imagine International Film Festival and the Foster Grant Ironman 70.3-mile World Championship!
There are plenty of shops, restaurants and accommodation in Clearwater Beach, and visitors are only a short drive from Bright House Field, where you can catch the Philadelphia Phillies during Spring Training. For football fans, Raymond James Stadium––home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers––is less than an hour away. Enjoy the warm breeze along Pier 60, the boardwalk full of souvenir shopping, pelican watching, and a perfect Gulf view.
Pop into Frenchy's or Bob Heilman's Beachcomber for some catch-of-the-day dinner, or visit Al and Stella's for an authentic Italian experience; afterwards, enjoy a cold one at The Bait House Tackle & Tavern, and take in some of the area’s lively nightlife before heading back to your Clearwater Beach hotel’s room.
