Clearwater is an ideal destination for travelers of all ages and interests, occupying prime real estate along Florida's stunning Gulf Coast. The City's beaches are consistently ranked among America's most beautiful, offering miles of sugar white sand, tranquil Gulf breezes, and crystal clear waters. As a top, year round location for both leisure and business, Clearwater boasts an endless supply of sun, warm weather, and great dining, along with extensive outdoor activities both on land and at sea.
The City itself is comprised of many unique parts. Two of them are the emerging Cleveland Street downtown district and the islands of Clearwater Beach. Both downtown and Clearwater Beach have expansive marina facilities making that area especially attractive to boaters. The city is also serviced by two nearby airports. Tampa International is often hailed as America's favorite, ranking high in convenience and ease of travel, and is located just 19 miles from the beach. The St. Petersburg/Clearwater International Airport is even closer to the beach (11 miles) and with rapidly expanding service, accessible from an ever-increasing number of cities.
