Clearwater Beach is the spot you want to be for enjoying a family vacation, a weekend get-away, or just to "simply relax".
A beautiful peninsula located on Florida's West Coast, Clearwater Beach is bordered by the Gulf of Mexico on the West and Tampa Bay on the East.
Literally translated "Clear Water" from the native Indian "Pocotopaug", the area was named for its abundant fresh springs along the shore. Settled by colonists in the mid-1830s, it was not until the 1890s that Clearwater gained a reputation as a resort community.
Today, fun 'n sun lovers still come from around the world, and although Clearwater is a great spot to get away, it's an even better place to live. Our community is friendly and socially responsive, and our City government is economically active and environmentally conscious. The City provides citizens with the programs and resources they need, and the amenities they desire.
Come experience our gorgeous sunsets, unique culteral heritage, vast sporting and recreational activities, fresh seafood, and don't forget the great shopping! Clearwater Beach is everything you need and want for your vacation, and within minutes to many popular Florida Attractions!
