The most soft, warm sand with clear warm waters that stretch for miles… just the perfect beach retreat. Expensive parking…. Hotels are generally well located and good choices of restaurant options

Beautiful beach, very wide. Lots of space, but fairly busy and party crowd. We had a wonderful time enjoying the beach and the gulf water. Parking is REAL expensive so looks around. The day at the beach was wonderful and packed with people having great times. we will return

A little busier than the more southern beaches, but spend a day for sure! Not great for little kids but tons to do around the marina and the beach is pristine. Great restaurants! Love this side of the state!

Water is blue and sand is powdery white and soft… one of the best beaches …kids were busy playing in sand, we had to pull them out of the beach and drag back… quite good experience.. the softest white sand I had ever seen with great water that was calm ….the only thing that pinched was that we got so engrossed at the beach that we forgot to enhance time of our parking ticket... I will give more marks to this beach than Miami Beach. It is surely a stop not to be missed and highly recommended for anyone visiting Florida.

The most softest, whitest sand you will ever feel between your toes - sublime, like baby powder! A beautiful wide& long beach with crystal clear water. Too chilly for me to swim in at this time of year & only there for a day/night stop on our Florida road trip but a wonderful beach to walk upon.

This is a world class white sand beach. Really long and wide plenty of space even if it’s crowded. There’s lots to do just a few minutes from the beach, including pier 60, shops, restaurants, etc. The traffic getting there is not great, as there’s only one way in Clearwater Beach, and parking can be hard to find. That said, this is a really great place to vacation. Just big enough to have things to do, small enough that it’s not overrun. Unfortunately, things in Clearwater have gotten very expensive, including food, and especially things like jet, skis, kayaks, and parasailing. The best thing is the amazing sunset over the gulf waters!

Stayed at the Gulfview, which is very good, staff is friendly, location excellent. Only thing is the place is a little old, but who stays in their room?? Pool and hot tub is a bonus. Blinkers steak house was FANTASTIC! Food was ahhh amazing, all the staff was friendly and personable.( Btw it's not a beach Clear Sky Cafe is rated as #1 for brunch for a good reason- highly recommended!!

My husband and I went to Clearwater Beach for a few. Unfortunately, we forgot it was spring break and found it to be extremely crowded. The beach is beautiful and the water is clear. The parking is very limited especially for the handicapped. We will go back making sure it’s not spring break!

Must experience. The all you can eat buffet was awesome and good. The all you can drink bar was amazing. I really liked the mixed drink. My first one I thought was weak. After having two I realized it snuck up on me like a ghost. This was an amazing boat ride.

This beach has something for everyone. We came for spring break and despite the water still being too chilly for most of our group no one was ever bored. There are so many shells, sand-dollars come in by the 100’s in the evenings. We walked to the end of the beach and found untouched beach with mangroves. The sunsets are incredible. We were able to snorkel on a couple calm days right off of the beach. We saw lots of dolphins. We definitely plan to come back when the water is warmer.
