Clearwater Beach
No. 17 of Best Things to Do in Florida

Clearwater Beach

6.5
4.8/5
26 reviews
Clearwater Beach is located on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. The stretch of white sand beach is made of fine, soft white quartz sand, which feels soft and clean under bare feet and doesn't get hot even in the heat; the bay has warm water and gentle waves, and the near-shore waters are shallow and calm, making it safe for children to play in the water, which is why it is a popular family-friendly destination. Pier 60, which extends into the sea, is a landmark of this beach. You can walk on the pier, watch people fishing, and sometimes even spot dolphins leaping out of the water. Around sunset every day, street performers and craft stalls gather near the pier, and people wait to watch the sun slowly sink into the Gulf of Mexico, painting the sea in shades of orange and gold. This long-standing sunset gathering is a signature scene here. During the day, you can also take a dolphin-watching boat tour, or try activities like paddleboarding, kayaking, and jet skiing.Clearwater Beach · 625m from downtown

3.0/5
2 reviews
Located in Clearwater Beach, Florida, Little Toot Dolphin Adventure - #1 Dolphin Tour in the USA! is a marine experience featuring wild dolphin watching. Founded in the late 20th century by a captain with a passion for the ocean, the company remains family-owned and focuses on providing guests with a relaxed, fun, and nature-oriented sailing experience. After boarding a sightseeing boat designed like a vintage tugboat, guests will travel along Clearwater Harbor into the Gulf of Mexico, spending about 1 to 1.5 hours on the itinerary in search of dolphins. Unlike standard tour boats, this vessel creates a distinct wake while sailing, which often attracts dolphins to jump and play in the boat's wake, allowing guests to observe their natural behavior from a close distance. At the same time, the crew provides commentary on local marine ecology and wildlife, making the journey both entertaining and educational.Clearwater Beach · 98m from downtown

It's worth going. You can watch the sea, listen to music, enjoy the view, plant flowers, and enjoy delicious food and entertainment. It is the safest and most comfortable place for babies to relax and play. It can be called the Hawaii of the East.

It was fun! A little smaller than expected, but all of the exhibits were really cool, and the animals all seemed very happy.

It's okay if you can't book. There are so many of them on the street. Other places also offer free island tours, and they're a few dollars cheaper.
