Florida's Beach
Welcome to St. Petersburg/Clearwater - Florida's Beach!
Florida's Beach is where you want to be! Close to
everything, yet miles away. A beautiful peninsula
located on Florida's West coast, the area is bordered by
the Gulf of Mexico to the west and by Tampa Bay to the
east. We offer 35 miles of white-sand beaches on some 20
barrier islands. We're within minutes of many popular
Florida attractions.

Fort De Soto Beach
True to a beach that has been ranked number one in the
continental United States, Fort De Soto Park offers 900
unspoiled acres and seven miles of beaches. A unique
area made up of five islands, the park features a fort
built during the Spanish-American War on the largest of
the islands, Mullet Key. Two fishing piers, camping
areas, a concession stand, bathroom facilities and
covered picnic shelters are available. Fort De Soto Park
also offers a popular biking and skating trail as well
as rental facilities for canoes, kayaks and bicycles.
There is an 85 cents toll on the bridges leading into
the park.

Caladesi Island
Home to a beach that has been
ranked fourth best in the entire U.S., Caladesi Island is
ideal for swimming, shelling, fishing, picnics,
snorkeling, scuba diving and nature study. This state
park features a three-mile nature trail winding through
the island's interior, a snack bar, shelters and docks
for private boats. The park opens daily from 8 a.m. to
sunset. A ferry departs hourly from nearby Honeymoon
Island.

Clearwater Beach
Offering just
about every water and beach activity imaginable,
Clearwater Beach has been named the top city beach in
the Gulf region. Pier 60 Park features a family
recreation complex on Clearwater's expansive beach with
covered playgrounds, fishing and concessions. The
Sunsets at Pier 60 festival features music,
entertainment and a beautiful Gulf of Mexico sunset
throughout the year.
