clearwater beach by doug48
clearwater beach is the closest beach from downtown tampa. the town of clearwater beach has an excellent collection of hotels, restaurants, bars, and of course it's beautiful gulf of mexico beach. see my clearwater pages for more information. from downtown tampa take US 60 (kennedy blvd) west about 15 miles to clearwater beach.
