Perfect to get some Vitamin D!
Our favorite places to soak up the sun and sip something strong.
One of our favorites because you get a beach, bar, and restaurant all in one. They have great drink specials and food, plus a second-story bar with rentable cabanas with beachside service! This is a spot where you can never go wrong.

The place locals and tourists can’t get enough of. We can’t have a beach day without visiting this spot – plus it’s right on the beach, you can walk right up to it from the sand! You can’t go wrong with sitting indoors to listen to live music or outdoors on their patio to catch a perfect sunset view.

A waterfront tiki bar in Clearwater and one of our favorite places to catch a sunset! They have live music, a corn hole, and a fire pit. We love sipping on their Tiki cocktail (you can never go wrong with a classic rum runner) and nibbling on their smoked fish dip while enjoying the sunset.
