10 Things to do in Clearwater That You Shouldn't Miss
Home to some of the best beaches in America, Clearwater is a great family beach destination. Sure, it’s in Florida, but it’s not Giant Rodent Florida (a.k.a. Orlando) or Crazy Spring Break Florida (a.k.a. Fort Lauderdale). Rather, it’s Calm, Old-Fashioned Florida… which is something worth seeing. Oh, and the weather’s outstanding.

Phenomenal experience! Jackie was so great and she answered all of our questions. The wines were surprisingly great for a small winery (only 3 employees!) this is definitely a must do if you visit Clearwater. Was truly an enjoyable visit and we would do this again in a heartbeat.
2. Clearwater Beach

With hundreds of things to do on Clearwater Beach, the main attraction is still pretty much its near-perfect beach (USA Today readers voted Clearwater Beach "Best Beach Town in Florida" in 2013). Beautiful white sand and clear, shallow water make this beach an ideal playground for families.

Spent a winter day in February walking, jogging, tanning, orgeous white sand, spacious, spent quiet time near the rocks by Opal Sand Resort's beautiful outdoor bar, the perfect spot to watch the sun set. No matter where you are in Clearwater it seems everything you need is right there.

Pier 60 in Clearwater Beach is a 'Center Point' of tourists activities in the area. That is, besides Clearwater Beach itself. The pier sort of divides the beach into two parts - the southern and the northern, and the Pier is right in between. Fishermen find it just the right spot to fish, pelicans love it too, and in the evenings the pier is also a perfect place to watch some beautiful sunsets over the Gulf. Pier 60 and the spacious playgrounds around , now named Pier 6o Park, are actually very attractive any time of the day - there's a snack bar there, a souvenir shop, playgrounds for kids , and for those who want to explore the area more there's also the Visitor Information Center, where one can get all kind of useful info about this area, including some regular events on Pier 60. There are a lot of shops, cafes and restaurants nearby. Long Live Pier 60! ...

We were meeting family at the beach on a busy Saturday and took the ferry from Dunedin. Left on time and price for two was less than parking in At the beach. Free parking in Dunedin was plentiful. We enjoyed the scenery and breeze as we looked at traffic at a standstill on the bridge. We took the 7:45 back and enjoyed a beautiful sunset

While on Vacation I took my daughter for lunch. Despite the Covid 19, mask are required but not while eating. I ordered the Baby Back Ribs with Mac n Cheese. The Mac n Chrese was so cheesy. My daughter loved it. The ribs had a little spice to it and so delicious. It was cool to have something to eat at a Brewery. They have a lot of beer selections to choice from. The beer is well worth it also. Great and friendly staff. They were always on top of sanitizing as I observed. Great place to experience.

This was the second must do of our Florida trip. CMA does not disappoint. We booked the feeding and photo with Rufus , an otter feeding was tossed in too; as well as the superb Behind the Scenes tour; and the Sea Boat Safari. We got to visit with Winter and Hope and Nicholas and all the other animals. A fun filled day that spanned from ten in the morning to 3:30 in the afternoon. Our son was never bored at all. So much to take in and enjoy. Staff are so friendly and well informed. Really time and money well spent.
