It's a tough task to list the wonderful things about a holiday in Clearwater. There are just so many of them. The destination seems to have something or the other for every taste and age group. While places such as the serene Sunken Gardens and Great Explorations Children’s Museum are perfect for spending a relaxed day out with the family, an afternoon at the Florida Holocaust Museum will send shivers down your spine. If history and culture fascinate you, dig into ten thousand years of interesting local historical titbits at the Safety Harbor Museum of Regional History.
A number of award-winning beaches redefine the phrase sun, sand, and the surf. A lovely way to explore the different beaches is to grab a motorcycle on rent and zoom from beach to beach. If the heat gets to you, try ice skating at popular rinks such as Sunblades Center and the rink in Westfield Countryside Mall. As the shadows lengthen, reach Pier 60 by sunset to watch colourful street performers in action. As far as the nightlife is concerned, let's just say that it turns some of the most cynical puritans into compulsive party animals.
So far, we have not even scratched the surface!
