Clearwater Beach includes a resort area and a residential area on the Gulf of Mexico in Pinellas County on the west central coast of Florida. Just west over the Intracoastal Waterway by way of the Clearwater Memorial Causeway from the city of Clearwater, Florida, of which it is part, Clearwater Beach is located at a geographic latitude is 27.57 N and longitude 82.48 W. The average local temperature is 73 °F (23 °C), with fall and spring being the most comfortable seasons. In January 2013, Clearwater Beach was awarded the designation of Florida's Best Beach Town by a reader poll from USA Today readers. It competed against nine other Florida beach destinations entered in the poll.
Clearwater Beach is characterized by white sand beaches stretching for 2.5 miles (4 km) along the Gulf and sits on a barrier island. It has a full marina on the Intracoastal Waterway side and is linked on the south by a short bridge to another barrier island called Sand Key, where Sand Key Park is located.
Clearwater Beach is approximately 20 miles (30 km) from Tampa International Airport and 25 miles (40 km) from downtown Tampa. It offers shopping, restaurants, and activities such as parasailing, jet ski rentals, boat tours (with a common sighting of dolphins in the Gulf waters), miniature golf, fishing charters, and "pirate ship" cruises.
Pier 60, named for State Road 60 which terminates in Clearwater Beach, is a central spot for beachgoers and has a playground, a snack bar with attached souvenir shop, and a long fishing pier. It's the site of a daily event called Sunsets at Pier 60, which includes street performers and musical acts. On the pier itself is a nightly display of goods sold by local artisans such as jewelry, candles, and other gift items.
The Clearwater Jolley Trolley has provided transportation up and down the beach since 1982. It currently runs to North Clearwater Beach and down to Sand Key, including Island Estates. Mandalay Avenue is the main drag on the north end of the beach with Gulfview Boulevard being so on the south. Both areas feature a variety of businesses.
Clearwater has frequently been ranked one of the best beaches in the U.S. Its Sandpearl resort was named one of the best beach resorts in the U.S. In 2009 an episode of Brooke Knows Best was shot on the beach

Did anybody else mute the video and play their favorite beach songs? LOL Mental Getaway! I love clearwater! Warm water, excellent environment! I'll be back!!!!
Love this drive, we have been here several times, and just love this area.
Everything looks more happy and colorfull than here in Belgium and so clean and new.
It was so much fun take that ride. I grew up in Clearwater Beach in the 60's. So much has changed but it was still fun to see some of the familiar landscape. Spent many evenings at Peir 60 with school friends It was the first place my parents let me take the car from the North end where we lived, when I got my driver's license. I thought I was something. Thanks for the ride down memory lane.
+Sherry Ewing My family used to go to Clearwater Beach in the 70s. We used to stay at The Angler motel. Do you remember it?
I wonder if you remember The Kapok Tree Inn, which I think was in the City of Clearwater itself.
Or maybe The Painted Horse, a smorgasbord restaurant also in Clearwater itself.
On Mandalay, north of Gulfview Avenue, and at spot where Mandalay either curved or made an unusual corner, there was an old hotel, which had a coconut palm tree in front. I remember this because that kind of palm doesn't usually grow that far north.
I used to walk along the beach of Clearwater Beach, until you'd get to a wild area of a few palms and other greenery, and past this, there was a large spit of white sand, which formed the northern tip of the island on which the city of Clearwater Beach was located. I could just see your friends and you partying there when you were teens. I used to have the place all to myself.
You must have had really nice teenage years.
I'm so glad that you have posted this video. I was trying to explain in detail to family and friends how gorgeous and clean Clearwater Beach was and I just couldn't do it justice. I wish that I had taken more pictures and videos myself on our trip there!! Thanks!! :)
Seriously considering moving to Clearwater. I have lived in the mountains of West Virginia all of my life and I am tired of the cold and snow. It is close to Tampa and close to all kinds of theme parks(I am huge theme park fan). Nice weather all year round and the beach is right at your doorstep. Thanks for posting a great video!
Joshua Rexrode thank u i was looking thru comments to see what city is close by...how close to tampa is it ?
2017 Clearwater jazz festival October 19 the temptations
Thank you for posting this. I had no idea downtown Clearwater was so beautiful. I'll include Clearwater in my search for homes now.
Towards the end of the video, the music was fantastic. It sounded like it was coming from a live performance assuming from a local bar? Exceptionally gifted musician.
Courtney Biddle Please Google or look up “Clearwater Florida and Scientology” before you do. Just a heads up before you pack your stuff. If you’re into that then you’re all set. If not, I would avoid that town like the plague. Nice for beach vacation but get out after that.
@@Shabbado55 Definitely not into Scientology. I do realize the headquarters is there. Just thought the normal people would outnumber the Scientologists. Venice is my #1 choice so far. Thanks for the input. I appreciate it.
Courtney Biddle No problem, just want to get the word out there. This cult hurts people and separates them from families. Was there YEARS ago with my family and too young to probably notice. But doing some research they keep buying up the properties there. The “Clearwater Bank” in this video? Is now owned by them and is a recruitment center. The beach is beautiful though, the town seems really clean, almost too clean because nobody is there. Anyways, I’d go with Venice as well! 👍
As I drove through the beach tonight I was amazed at all the construction that was going on and how fast it was going up. It really is looking like south beach more and more. What a difference a few months make! Great video.
I live ten minutes away and visit often, No place better in the US.
Thank you for sharing this video, what a beautiful view. I'm moving to Florida soon and this just makes me want to leave tomorrow.
Ahhhhhh, takes me back! 2017 my first drive to Clearwater beach! One of most calm & refreshing drives, beach is beautiful can't wait to go back!
Awesome video of Clearwater Beach, thanks for sharing it with everyone.
Thank you for your video even though it's five years later beautiful drive
Check out the more recent videos on the channel
Glad you enjoyed it!
I live like 90 minutes away from Clearwater. Its been some years but remember pier 60. It has changed for the better. Hope to go in the spring time.
Beautiful clearwater, from beautiful Scotland.
my favorite spot when taking a break from Orlando .love pier 60
I lived there for a year I loved it loved it loved it when they're on vacation and stayed for very long time love it so much I left and I came back again for another year beautiful Town beautiful beach it is so beautiful there love the water best vacation ever
lucky you
thank you for posting, good job, quality video :) . Beautiful city.
I live 5 minutes away, it's way to crowded every day so I just go to treasure island or Madeira beach. Clearwater is a huge tourist sight so it's funny every time I see like a Canadian license plat😂😂
Paradise on earth!
Excellent video. Thanks for posting.
White Hot Sands! I grew up spending summers by pier 60, and roaming the entire beach scene from Dunedins Dog Beach, Honeymoon is
Island, Clearwater beach, all the other beaches from Sand Key when it was only sand, babes and fun in the sun! Late 70s....1978 was the best.... (Hello Jamie Wright DHS!)
Thank you for this video. I literally feel like I driving with you. This is such a beautiful city. Thank you for the experience
Thanks for this. It was great to watch.
I want live there !Very nice Clearwater! Love it!!!
Thanks for posting this video, I just came from there. One of the best beaches. I wish I live there....
Thank you for posting this video! Very Well Done.
I lived there when you made this video. I love it there so much.
Wow! Watching this video took me back! I have to navigate the streets of Clearwater Beach three to five times a week. There was sooo much construction going on when you shot this drive through. I believe there were four hotels/resorts being built at the same time. Hopefully, you've had a chance to visit since then. The construction is all but finished. The Opal Sands is awesome, and there's about three other new hotels that popped up. They've done a good job with building it up. It's an older video, but I appreciate the trip down memory lane. Seriously... I'm so glad that construction is done, though. Lol.
And the night life was great too! Cool bars....not pier 60, but the other pier going northwards...there was a bar to the left of that pier....1977, 1978....wild times fun times!
I love to go there I went 3 times it’s beautiful! Definitely going again🌞🌴😍
woo I really liked it. I am going to live in Clearwater
Love it... moving there soon..so beautiful
Vacationing there in May, I can't wait!
I've taken this exact same route while I was there
Been there for a week, so lovely place
See you June 30 thru July 6
Happy 4th in Clearwater
Never been there and looking forward to a nice visit
Amazing place,I would like to live here,omg.
I love clearwater fl nice city
Great video,first time I've seen Clearwater ! What was the big construction project about 4 min into video ! Hotel ? How is the condo market there price wise either beach view,guess beach front is very pricey !
Elliott J That would be The Opal...looking sharp....
Looks like to big hotel for the area
Elliott J Not really, it will get filled. Besides some of those units will be designated condos anyways. And the first 3 floors are parking. Same thing with Dr. Patel's twin towers being built further down north of the Hyatt. Twin 17 stories, with a resort in the middle. There is demand. Trust me....I live around there. Overall, Florida gains @100,000 a month.....mostly aging baby boomers from up north.
Don't know if it's still there or not, but the North Beach fire dept. used to entertain themselves with a nickel superglued to the sidewalk facing the side street. I'm just sayin'...
Wow nice video!
Grew up in clearwater from 1964 to 1973 and went to SkyCrest Elementary school then family moved 30 miles N. of there, The gulf coast sucks, Think about moving too the Atlantic side its much nicer like between Vero beach and Jupiter my favorite is Port St Lucie after working there for a yr, As a construction Supervisor I have lived all over Florida and this is for a 80 to 100.000 income, It was a great town to grow up in and I am still bummed about not getting to go to JFK and Clearwater high school hehe
The jolliest person in the cosmos, has the least amount of responsibilities, and has lived this way for the longest time. That's why the bathrooms in his villa have quiet flush electric toilets.
Heaven = Have Fun... Craig :)
i plan to move there, i live in sweden !
But you know that the city center is kinda controlled by Scientology?
Alexandros1984 if you move there you better be rich.
If you want atheistism and more vacation holiday stay in your shitty continent.
Andrew Bro You're realize you are living in a Christian country right?
You should really visit the Atlantic side of central and south Florida cause its all better there and they have waves to surf on and don't need to be rich, 75.000 yr income is all to live comfortably and plenty of jobs around for anyone who WANTS to work, Atlantic Ocean and Indian River provide some of the best fishing, Just visit Clearwater then take St. Rd 60 across the state then look around as you drive south, If you pass Jupiter turn around and look some more, Seriously
thank you for sharing such video. basically, im planning to have some business there in architect and decorations. I want to add some Egyptian taste to my clients there. I hope this works and goes well :)
How did it work for you?
Dammmm that's nice I love Florida wowww
how do you get your windshield so clean ?
Hyhyhy
Pretty! I'm one town over in Dunedin!
Same im tarpon springs
Cool maybe I will try to take a video of there
Im from Jacksonville. Great vid
Is that white stuff sand?
I guess it is, it is just so WHITE, as white as the snow outside my door
It is because the sand has small quartz particles in it that make it white and shine, it also is not real hot like other sand. Clearwater beach is a lot nicer then here in Manasota Key beach, the sand here is darker and not clean like Clearwater.
The panhandle of Florida (northwestern part) has really white sand on its beaches too.
Way to be a douche. He said it "looked" at white as snow.
What kind of camera is this?
i could so live here..
Çok güzel bir yermiş orada yaşamak isterdim İstanbul Türkiye selamlar
Buen video...muy bueno.
Clearwater Beach..."new" South Beach sans the nightlife and culture...man sure has changed since I first came down here as a screaming tourist from Ohio visiting native born relatives back in the 70s...(might be 1/4 native...still 3/4 Yankee...LOL!)...native side slowly died off and left property, and I retired young...why not?
Iam going there in two weeks and is there a lot of jellyfish?
Thomas Green No Jellyfish but make sure to do "The StingRay Shuffle" they are not real bad but as long as you drag your feet when walking out it scares the stingrays away.
ɷɷ Heeyy Friendssss I Have Foundddd Workingggg Online Hacck Visit : - t.co/buF2m2sXBc
where is clearwater? i know florida but where. or near what city
Marielis Troche it's kind of a "suburb" of Tampa. Middle of the state
ohh ok
as much as I enjoyed the calm ride, the beautiful beach, the blue sky and the clean streets I'll have to admit that I would feel extremely uncomfortable in such a environment. Reasons such as the way I look all up to things that I find unpleasant such as nudity (I know it's warm there). My followed ethics and beliefs just happen not to match often with those of the society in which we live currently.
I avoid Clearwater beach like the plague during spring break lol
anywhere near bonita beach?
About 175 miles from Bonita springs.
At 8:51 you passed my hotel. The blue one
I ATE DINNER IN CLEARWATER TONIGHT AT ABES PLACE GREAT FOOD! CHEROKEE
i thought this was clearwater. Im not entirely crazy
Stay away,no more tourist! Our traffic is bad enough.
S
wtf?
I saw my hotel lol I’m going for the first time in may
