"Wow, this is Paradise !! This is my first visit to Clearwater Beach, and it is a place that I will return to for years and years to come. The white sand, the glistening water, the tiki bars, and the friendly atmosphere have made my vacation, one that I will remember forever!"

CLEARWATER BEACH is the cleanest beach we have ever been to. No other beach in the US that we have visited to can stack up to CB!

Steve Merchant

from Crofton MD.

I have been coming to Clearwater Beach since 1955, when my grandparents first moved there. I have been bringing my kids there since 1988. It is the best beach I have ever visited.

Carla

"Our family has been vacationing at Clearwater Beach for the past 8 years. We love the beach, the family atmosphere, the numerous things to do there, and the safety we feel while we are there. We stay at the Ramada Inn Gulfview and my children love it! There's no other place we like to spend our vacation than Clearwater Beach."

Denise

from Loveland, Colorado

"My sister and I just got back from a week in clearwater. It was GREAT! It's my favorite place to be! We stayed at the holiday Inn SunSpee - it's just quite enough and just happening enough to have something for everyone. Everything is within walking distance and watching dolphins swim right from the shoreline was awesome."

My husband and I come to Clearwater Beach every year, and have since we got married twelve years ago. We love French'ys ORIGINAL. The grouper burgers and the fish spread are the best on the beach. And the sunsets are the best in Florida.

~Kate

from South New Jersey

I went to Clearwater with my family one spring break and I fell in love with a man who I can no longer find anywhere. He is a past memory that will last forever and he sang to me as we watched the sun set on the Clearwater Beach and I have not been content to this day because I have not found him. But those five days were the most amazing days I have ever had. Amazing hotel (Holiday Inn) wonderful food, incredible scenery, and amazingly romantic!

My family and I have been travelling to Florida for the past 12 years and always visit Clearwater Beach for a week or two. We love the people and the sunshine and, of course, the endless stretches of sugar-white sand. Once we came to Clearwater for the first time, we never went anywhere else. I have been bringing my son to Clearwater since he was 2 years old and he says it is his most favourite place in the whole world. He is 14 now and planning how he can move to Clearwater when he grows up! I could go along with that!

Wayne Szemacs

"My family and I have been to Clearwater Beach several times over the past 18 years; it is our favorite place to vacation and we expect to someday move there. No matter where we've been on vacation, no other place compares to Clearwater Beach! No matter what you enjoy doing, you can always find it there. My wife love the ocean and beach, I love deep sea fishing, and our son loves everything about it. It is a great place to vacation, and it's a beautiful place with a wonderful beach."

James C Fanto

"Absolutely my favorite vacation place anywhere! After introducing my girlfriend to my personal paradise in 1999, I knew in 2000 there would be no better place to propose to her than right on the beach. She said yes!!!!"

Jan

from Spirit Lake, Iowa

Have been going to Clearwater Beach for past 10 years for our vacation and love it...the beaches are the best in Florida...and the sunsets are spectacular to say the least. Now that my last daughter is graduating this year....I will continue to come to Clearwater Beach annually by myself.

Bill Stultz

We have been coming to the beach for over 35 years almost every year.

Paula Schleif

Florida is my favorite place to vacation and Clearwater beach is one of the nicest.

Smilden family

from Bergen, Norway

Planning our yearly vacation has become a nightmare! None of us, 2 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 kids, want to go anywhere else but back to Florida to Clearwater Beach. London, Denmark, Spain..nope, we all have one favorite destination in mind where we spent 2 fabulous weeks only a short time after 9-11-02. Unfortunately, getting all of us halfway around the world, from Bergen Norway to Florida takes both planning and money. But we'll be back!

Leanne, 16

"The best beach holiday I have ever experienced."

Sarah Elam

from Ohio

My husband and I just got home from Clearwater Beach. We didn't want to leave! We had a wonderful time while we were there. We got married on the beach in '98 right in front of the Clearwater Beach Hotel. It was amazing being able to go back to the spot we got married in and walk on the beaches at sunrise. I'm already planning for when we come back!

Lori W. Hopkin

from MN

We have gone to Clearwater Beach Fl for 2 yr now. We love it there!!! What a great family time we have had. The beachez are beautiful!! Can't wait to go again.

Debra Bobish

from Farrell, Pennsylvania

I started vacationing in Clearwater and on Clearwater Beach in 1982, when my mother moved to the area. After her husband's death, she moved back to Pennsylvania to be near us, but, each year, she and I continued to travel to Clearwater Beach for a two week vacation. We stayed in many different places, but finally started staying at Graham and Maria Coates' Ebb Tide Resort each year, where we were treated like family. Mom died in October of 2001, but I still returned to the Ebb Tide in May of this year, and plan to continue. I love the area and really enjoy staying at the Ebb Tide, where everyone is friendly and caring!

Elaine

from NJ

"I'm the one who brought Bill from NJ to Clearwater Beach for the first time. It has everything you need for that special getaway. The white sandy beaches, the warm Gulf waters, and spectacular sunsets have called me back every year since 1979."

Don Battles

"I just checked your web site for the free t-shirt and I won!!!!!! I hope my name shows up on Sept 15th also. We were down there in July. We love it there. It is great!!!!!!!!!!"

We love Clearwater Beach. My husband and i just returned from there this past weekend. We were there about 10 years ago with our two sons. This time we went by ourselves. I love the beaches there, they are so clean compared to some we have seen. I would love to go back there next summer!

Cindy

from Unknown

I love this beach!! My husband and I fell in love with Clearwater Beach during our honeymoon in 1994. We live in Orlando and refuse to go to any of the East Coast beaches. Clearwater Beach is clean, entertaining, accommodating, and breath taking. The locals are friendly and helpful. You are guaranteed to make wonderful memories.

Andreas

from Stuttgart, Germany

I really had 2 wonderful weeks of vacation and enjoyed superb weather, very delicious food, superb golf courses and the great landscape!!! I swear i'll come back in a few years!

Clearwater Beach is the Best place i have ever been. I go there every year and I NEVER get bored. From the boats to the dolpins in the Gulf of Mexico, this place is wonderful. i think everyone should have a chance to visit this place. I am going to grow up there and have my kids there too. I can't get enough of this place .

We have been to Clearwater every year for 4 years and it is like heaven on earth! Paradise! We love to walk to the northern point of Caladesi Island.....that for sure must be heaven! It is beautiful, peaceful, relaxing, fun and a long ways! We will count down the number of days till our long weekend on your beautiful beaches!

Samantha

from Philadelphia, PA

I moved from Philadelphia to Florida. I was at a bar in Orlando and overheard that Clearwater Beach was the spot to be so I moved there and immediatly fell in love. Clearwater Beach beats all others with the soft white sand, the warm calm water, the palm trees, the weather and everything. I lived about 20 feet from the sand in my very first apartment. Several months later bad news hit and I had to move home. I belong in Clearwater and I miss it everyday...I can't wait to go back. Florida is where my beach lives.

Lisa

from Canada

I just spent a week vacation in Clearwater beach and I had a fantastic time. The beach is very beautiful, and the gulf water is great. We had a wonderful hotel, and we ate fabulous! I live in Canada, so I really enjoyed the beach. See you again , Clearwater

Mrs. Suzanne Brenstuhl

from Amsterdam, Ohio

"We have enjoyed coming to Clearwater to vacation for the past 20 years. Last year my daughters cheerleading squad competed in Tampa and I recommended all the parents to take a drive to Clearwater. They were so impressed that many are planning to vacation there. They especially liked the white clean sandy beaches and great hospitality they received in the area. This March we will be cheering in Myrtle Beach and we plan to take an extended vacation back down to Clearwater."

Bob Miller

from Pittsburgh, PA

I Began vacationing in Clearwater Beach 8 years ago, when I was single. I saw an ad in a local newspaper and decided to give it a try. I'll never forget the impression that I got as I drove out onto the island the first time. It was love at first sight. Since then, I proposed to my wife on the beach, honeymooned on the beach, and 2 years ago, brought my children along for the first time, and as I knew would happen, they're in love with the beach too. We're now planning this year's trip for November, and just can't wait to come back to our second home. See you soon ,Clearwater Beach.

Darlene

Unknown

My wife and I have been vacationing every year in Clearwater Beach since 1984 and love every minute of it. We just came home from there and were a little disappointed. The small motels and various shops, restaurants, etc.; make Clearwater Beach unique, however it now appears that they are destroying the landscape with condos. We don't know if we will be back again. We live in Daytona Beach and have been witness to the greed of the developers.

Kelly A Johnson

from Unknown

Hello, clearwater beach is my favorite vacation spot. I've gone twice and last year my boyfriend proposed to me right on the beach! This year he said he was going regardless if I went or not. I told him no only because I'm saving money for a car. I finally broke down and told him that I wanted to go. I couldn't bear the thought of him calling me from the beautiful beaches while I sat in rainy and depressing syracuse. We got engaged on March 20th and we plan to and go to the beach that night. There is so much to do and it just gets better and better each year.

Wendy Totos

from Kittanning, PA

Vacationing at Clearwater Beach has to be the best gift our family gave to each other! For one week we enjoyed the fantastic sunsets, great seafood, walks on the Pier, and watched as our son caught a 6 foot shark! The memories will last us forever!!

mkd

from pittsburgh pa

I lived in clearwater 15 years. I'm in Pennsylvania now and I desperately wanting to relocate my family back there. There's no place like home. Clearwater Beach is by far the most BEAUTIFUL BEACH I've ever seen.

Brenda

from Gladstone, MO

The beginning of May, my friend and I arrived in beautiful Clearwater Beach. This was her first visit, and my third. From the very beginning I had told her how wonderful it was, but I wanted her to see it for herself. Well she did. From the beautiful white sand of the beaches, the sunsets, the sunrises, everything within walking distance, and the local people, so accommodating. Well to say the least, she wants this to be an annual trip, and hopefully we will be able to do it for many years to come.

Steve Mitten

from Southampton, ENGLAND, UK

Hi. I First came to Clearwater Beach 11Years ago. I will Always remember my first thoughts as I came over the causeway. WOW!!!!!!!! Absolutely Beautiful. The whole island is filled with fun & joy, So much to do, you never really need to leave the island!! Since that first time I have returned many times & each year the place gets better.

Sue Abernathy

from Georgetown, Ohio

I have been visiting Clearwater since 1974....and have been there every year (sometimes a couple times a year) since then.....we stay at the same hotel for most of the time.. So many wonderful experiences have happened to us.. It is the ideal place to visit....You have two major cities within 20 miles, and the small town feeling for your enjoyment. You are only a few miles from all activities.....and yet on the water for all the fun and relaxation. This is the perfect place to be...the best of all worlds.......Come and see for yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa Nolan

from Clearwater Beach permanent resident

I vacationed here for the first time in june of 2000. I now live here. I moved here the later part of 2000. I love it here. I love everything about Clearwater Beach.

Christy Vaughn

from Owensboro, Kentucky

I have traveled to Florida since I was big enough for a car seat, which has been all my life. My parents and I started coming to Clearwater Beach when I was a 5th grader and the first time here we stayed at what was then the Clearwater Beach Motel. I must say that things have changed since then. I'm now almost 30 years old and we're still coming to Clearwater Beach. Now we are staying at the revamped Clearwater Beach Hotel and enjoying the old section of the hotel. As an adult I appreciate even more now the magnificent sunsets and the relaxation that is so evident as soon as we get here. It's like a little piece of heaven, literally. I love the ocean and there's really nowhere else on earth that I can imagine relaxing as much as I can here. This is the ultimate vacation destination for us and will continue to be for years to come.

Robin Morris-Topp

The spectacular sunsets in Clearwater Beach are the best in the world! My family and I always enjoy a stroll on the Pier! The people in this area are always so friendly. It is truely the most relaxing vacation anyone could hope for. A great place for families to reconnect.

Peggi H.

from Romulus, Mich

My grandparents came to Clearwater Beach every winter in the 50's 60's and 70's. When I came to visit for the first time, I realized why they always came back. I'm still trying to find the mobile home park they used to stay at..just out of curiosity..

Kikki

Just wanted to tell you I sure miss being on the Beach.....and wish you great success with your festival.

Judy Curless

from Cincinnati, Ohio

We love Clearwater Beach and plan to return this summer. My husband and I have been to several different beaches in Florida (Atlantic side and Gulf side), and we can honestly say that Clearwater Beach is wonderful and our favorite. The beaches are clean and the water is just beautiful. Maybe some day we will consider retiring there, but for now we are happy to visit once a year and soak up that great Florida sun!!

"Having gone to Clearwater Beach for the past 15 years...there is no other place in Florida I would rather go...the beaches are superb; the dining is wonderful;it's paradise!We always stay at the same resort and we love it!"

Jonathan

from Unknown

We visited Clearwater Beach last spring and we finally arrived there after a very long day of being stuck on the side of I-4 near Daytona Beach for almost 6 hours. It was a very long day and a very hot one at that, not to mention being so upset because my jeep broke down. We did however finally make it there late that night and despite the fact that we had to rent a car and unconvinced my father by having him drive down to Daytona after the trip to get us, we loved the beach! We had such a great time there and want to come back again so bad! It was a time I will never forget.

Gearge A.

from New Jersey Shore

I used to visit Clearwater Beach every summer as a child with my family and last year I took my 8 year old daughter on a mother/daughter weekend to show her what I love and she still begs us to go back for longer with dad and her 2 sisters. Everything is the same as I remember, even the smell of the outside beach showers. My great-grandma lived in a trailer right where the Hilton stands now close to the pier. Boy did I love that pier as a child, I was even aloud to walk it alone.

Surf Rippa

from Jersey

What can I say? I love soaking up the sun and eating grouper snadwiches at Frenchy's. Life is a (clearwater) beach!

Laurie and Jim Kenworthy

from Largo, Fla

We just got back from our vacation on Clearwater Beach. I am from Largo, so we like to stay on the Beach and visit family while we are down. I have to say, these are the friendliest people in the world. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Sunspree and they were great. We love watching the Dolphins in the Inter coastal Waterway right from our balcony. The restaurants on the beach are really good. What a great trip!

Thomas Bluhm

from GERMANY

If been in Clearwater Bch. in 1979 for the first time. At this time I was 14 yrs. old. After that I visited Clearwater for 8 times again. last visit was in 1994. In those years I saw the changes that Clearwater made. I remember at the end of Bayway Blvd. Was just a little Golf place, now there a lot of shops and restaurants. It's a great place to stay.Now I'm 35 and I'm sure, that I'll visit Clearwater again.

Robin

There is no place like Clearwater Beach, this year we decided to vacation somewhere else and must say it didnt compare to Clearwater. Needless to say we will be back in 2005. My children just love it there. The beautiful beach, great restaurants and the Pier. Its just a great family vacation. I highly recommend Clearwater Beach to everyone.!

A. E. Garcia

from Beaverton, Oregon

Hello, Today is my second day at work since I returned from spending 7 days in Clearwater Beach, this was my wife's, daughter's and my self's second visit and my 1 year old son's first. We absolutely had a great time, most of it was swimming and basking in the sun, my daughter spent most of her time collecting beautiful shells on the shore. I'm planning to make CB my family vacation spot.

David

from San Diego

Living in San Diego, I decided to get a taste of Florida and the best decision I made was to spend it in Clearwater Beach. The unspoiled beaches, friendly environment and abundent restaurants made it the best vacation I've taken in this country in a LONG time!!! The next time my family wants to go to Hawaii or some other exotic beach for a vacation, I am going to suggest we come back to Clearwater Beach.

DimndDolfn

from Unknown

My family and I absolutely love Clearwater Beach, Fl. We vacation once or twice a year. My husband and I love it so much we were married there at a local Resort, right on the beach. (we visit every June to celebrate our anniversary). Everything you could possibly want to do is right there and most within walking distance. The locals are very friendly as well as all places of business. You cant go wrong with a vacation to Clearwater Beach.

Peggy

On days when I'm fighting the gloomies, or when the cold weather has just gotten to be too much, I get out my pictures or go to this sight and remember what wonderful vacations we have had at Clearwater Beach. We're planning for another one!

Mrs.Dawn Pugh

"My husband and I had started vacationing at Clearwater Beach 15 years ago before we had any children. Now 2 children and 15 yrs. later we still find Clearwater Beach to be our favorite vacation spot. There is plenty to do whether you are a family or just vacationing with friends. We are looking forward to our next vacation at Clearwater Beach."

Glenn and Cindy

from Newfield, NY

We just returned to NY after a week in Clearwater Beach. My husband is a plow man and was happy that we left home when we did. The beautiful pristine white sand and the Gulfshore sunsets are the best ever. We'll be back because it was just the nicest place for the ocean and shore we've ever visted. Thank you, Clearwater, for hooking us on your sunshine and fun.

Andrew Rhodes

Kelly Harper

Hello I am from Pittsburch and have been coming to clearwater beach for about six years. I love every part of the area, the food and beaches most of all. Frenchys has the best "buffalo chiken sandwich" in the world. I will be coming down July of 2001 for yet another trip and I am already counting the days.

JR&Robin

from Ex New Jersey

My wife and i just moved here from NJ and where awestruck by how clean the beach is, plus they have chairs and umbrellas, which you have to rent in NJ. Plus you have to pay $4.50 to even get on in a beach in NJ. This is on hell of a town!!!!!!!!!!!!

Judy Nemecek

We have vacationed in Clearwater Beach for many years. My family has also vacationed there for many years. Clearwater is the only place we will go in Florida, we have tried other beaches and they can't compare. Hope to find something to stay at soon, we sure do miss the white sand and clean beach...

Keli

from Cleveland, OH

I have been going to Clearwater Beach for 13 years, at least three times a year. I consider it my second home, and am so impressed with everything there, that I am going to attend college nearby and commute from my Clearwater Beach family-owned condo. After visiting it just a few weeks ago, I am anxiously waiting for it to be remodeled and I just love the roundabout, it makes it look like something from Europe! My family is going to retire down there, and all my aunts and uncles love it it too. I can't wait to go down there for Spring Break 2001!!

The Jardine Family

from Scotland

"My family and I had our first Clearwater Beach vaccation this summer. We have been to Orlando 4 years in a row and this year decided to give the theme parks a miss. It was the best holiday we have had. The beach is superb and the sea food the best. We will be back summer 2001/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/ 7 and for as long as we can."

Clearwater Beach is the ultimate vacation spot !!! Been flying/driving there for the past 5 years and I will continue to do so. Clearwater is the much needed break from life's daily dose of Murphy's Law !

Nobody Special

CWB is a great spot for the family. There is plent to do and great views to see. Just going there to see the sunsets alone is worth the trip!

My husband and I have visited Florida many times but this is the first time to visit Clearwater Beach. I LOVED IT!!! I have been to a lot of beaches but this was the most beautifulust beach I have ever been. We vacationed this summer at Myrtle Beach, SC again but after going to Clearwater over the Labor Day weekend I fell in love with it and know that it will be where I vacation next year.

I just took my girlfriend on vacation to Clearwater Beach and it was excellent. It was my first vacation since graduating from college and I couldn't have picked a better place on earth. This was an absolute perfect get away and I encourage anyone to take a trip to Clearwater Beach. There were a ton of fun things to do around the area and the people were fantastic. We went to Tampa, St. Petesburg and Ybor City which are all within a short driving distance of Clearwater Beach. Just try it and you will like it.

I Loved my vacation to Clearwater Beach.The weather and the view we had right on the beach was just beautiful. It is a very friendly place and a lot of things were very reasonable. I do plan on going back for Christmas this year and next year I will definately be looking at property there. I would definately recommend this wonderful place to anyone and everyone. The sunsets are unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just wanted to write to let you know how much my friend and I enjoy Clearwater Beach. We recently visited there ( my friend for the 13th year and myself for the 4th year) and I can tell you that the beach is as beautiful as in any picture you may find. Some of the best resteruants are located on the beach, including Seafood and Sunsets at Julie's. The staff there is always friendly and helpful and what a view! We plan to visit Clearwater Beach every year until we are too old to enjoy it. In other words--always! We love the businesses and hotels on the Beach and will continue to stay on Clearwater for the next several years. Thanks!

from Jay, New York

My wife and family have been vacationing in Clearwater Beach since Christmas of 1984, need I say more. We have changed our Vacation schedule to April, but nothing is different. We love the beach, the restaurants, and most of all the beautiful weather. We are now discussing the probability of going down for Christmas again this year and then again in April. It is really impossible to name all the reasons we continue to go to Clearwater Beach after all these years. I guess the best thing to say is "Try it and you'll understand'.

I am 36 years old and I have been vacationing at Clearwater Beach every year since my parents took me when I was 6 months old. I look forward to coming down to Clearwater Beach for Rest and relaxation every 4th of July week to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life in Atlanta Ga. and Clearwater puts on a great fireworks display 4th of July evening.

Clearwater Beach has to be the best treat you can afford yourself. One day at this fabulous beach melts all the past years frustrations about work, and just the daily hustle and bustle dealings of life in general. You know you are in for a great and relaxing week the minute you lay your blanket on that beautiful white sand, apply the suntan lotion and close your eyes. The sounds alone of the gentle waves, seagulls above and sailboats gliding by are the best medicine in the world. It has gotten me through many a day when I have to come back to reality from a fantastic week at Clearwater Beach. Thanks for all the memories...

Rick and Paula

In May of 2000, we visited Clearwater for the first time after hearing so much about it from our neice Lisa. It was the best vacation we have ever experienced. The most beautiful beaches we have ever seen, and the water was so clear. We had a beautiful room with a view of the Gulf and each evening we sat by the pool and watched the sunset over the Gulf, breathtaking. Now when we speak of going to the beach, it is always Clearwater that we think of. We are coming back this year.

Gail

from Chicago, Ill.

"I am fortunate in that work affords me the opportunity to visit your lovely beach at least once a year. Over the course of the years I've met some really wonderful people in clearwater. Just last year I ran into a group of fine folks from Buffalo who were really enjoying all Florida has to offer. I sure hope "Randi" and his delightful baritone make it back. The sunsets just won't be the same without him bellowing "Chicago" in his velvet tone.

KRF

from West Virginia

"We have been coming to Clearwater Beach at least once a year for the past 11 years. There is no place in the world like it. In fact, we are planning on relocating to the area as soon as possible. It is a great place to retire. We have never had a bad time there. The sun, the sand, and the people all make it the ideal vacation place. And the sunsets are spectacular."

My husband and I have been coming to Clearwater Beach for almost 28 years. What a beautiful place to spend some relaxing time walking the beach, watching the dolphins play, enjoying the water craft, loving the beautiful sunsets - each one special, and the great people we have met over the years. We have become friends with the Pirates Ransom owners. What beautiful people. Ohoy Matey!!! Over the years we have made some great friendships as our group meet each year at the same time and same place. We have friends that come from England, Canada, and all over the U.S. We have told many people that you can forget Hawaii, we would take Clearwater Beach any day. Nothing better than sitting at Leverocks having a nice dinner with your best friend and husband, watching the boats go by, enjoying the playful dolphins, people fishing, jet skis, etc. And be there at sunset, and what a beautiful view. Is this heaven or what?

I never understood why our friends always went to the same vacation destination until we started going to Clearwater Beach. Clearwater is our home away from home every summer and we count down the weeks until we can check into our favorite place. "Kids Week" is awesome and the volunteers are fantastic. It's a place where you can park your car, walk and enjoy everything that Clearwater has to offer!! Hope to see you there in JULY!!!

My husband and I bought a Timeshare here 2 years ago at Indiana Shores. It's the best investment we ever made. We love coming to Clearwater and will bring family and friends with us every year. There's so much to do. We're heading back this April!

"My family and I had a wonderful time vacationing in Clearwater Beach this summer. We loved all the restaurants on the beach, the sunsets, and the water sports. We will try to return sometime soon!"

I went on a dolphin encounter and could not have been MORE pleased!! I think we saw at least a dozen of them playing in the boats wake! The Captain went out his way to make this a unique experience!! The boat is small but mighty!!! Go out of your way to experience this!! You will be thrilled to see the dolphins so very close!!!

Debra Brandi

My husband and I just got back from Clearwater Beach. We love it there. You can walk to just about anything. We got a car and even drove to Universal Studios, which was only an hour and half away. We stayed at the Barefoot Bay Resort and it was really nice and affordable. The manager was very polite and so friendly. I would definitely recommend staying there. The beaches are beautiful and clean. We could always find something to do any time of the day or night. I look forward to going back.

Tony Lanford

My parents and I visit Clearwater Beach, FL. twice a year. We love it so much we are now trying to move there. The sunsets at Pier 60 are so spectacular they are enjoyed by people across the world. You speak to several people while on the pier and all say, "This place is the most beautiful place in the world." We love it!

Amy R. Gallo

from Akron, OH

I recently visited Clearwater Beach. My friend and I drove all night and day from Ohio to get there on Friday evening. When we got there and I went to check into the hotel my window in my car door wouldn't go up. I went in to the hotel to check in and came back out and it still was stuck. I was very upset, as you can imagine and I didn't know what to do. Not only were the others on vacation helpful and caring but everyone who worked there was too! I especially think the people at the Goodyear shop on Rt. 60 and the Ramada are some of the kindest. They made me feel much better by letting me keep my car parked up front where it could be watched all night until I could get it fixed the next morning. At Goodyear they were extremely friendly and helpful! I cannot wait until my next visit! I have never been to a place where EVERYONE you come in contact with is in a great mood!

My family and I went to clearwater beach last year for April vacation for our first time. I'm 16 years old, and I had a blast. It is the prettiest place I have ever seen. It's very relaxing, but fun at the same time. We did jet skiing in the Gulf of Mexico and that was so much fun! This year I asked my parents to go back again, and we are. It's an awsome place to go for vacation.

Mrs. Alesia Lacey-Welton

The restaurants and hospitality of all the businesses is great! I just cant say enough. My kids love it! You will Have nothing but pleasant experiences in Clearwater Beach, Florida. My husband and I are eagerly awaiting our June vacation.

I grew up in Clearwater, and my husband and I try to get back there as much as possible. We are trying to retire there, it is really wonderful. There is no place friendlier than Clearwater. I love the people, the place, the attitude.

John and Deborah Michael

from Bradenton, Fla

My husband and I first visited clearwater beach on a drive. It was our 10th wedding anniversary. We live in bradenton, so it is a short distance from home but it feels like a real getaway. We have now been going there for 8 years and love everything about it. We love the ride and always visit tarpon springs. There is so much to do on the beach and the night time concerts at the pier are wonderful. We really get to relax and we plan on visiting for a long time to come. Thank you to all the Clearwater Beach residents you are very kind.
