Life
at The Beachouse is not complicated. We've put this page together so that you
can do much of your vacation planning right here on this site...giving you more
time to enjoy yourself. We have split this page into three main categories to
make things easier. We recommend the local flavors, but if you feel the need
to venture out, let's say to Disney, then you'll find a link here to take you
there as well. Remember, you don't have to do anything...but if you do...the
owners at The Beachouse are there to help. Happy planning!

- Sunsets at Pier 60...is
a nightly Key West-style festival centered around live entertainment, crafts,
the famous pier and of course the breathtaking sunset. Five stars for this...mother
nature never did it so good.
- The Clearwater Beach Marina...is a definite must
see. Our recommendation: go there at about 4:30 in the afternoon and watch
the boats bring in their catch. But if adventure is your passion, you can
charter your own fishing boat here or just join one of the group fishing
expeditions. You can even rent a sail boat or sign up for parasailing.
- Frenchy's
Salt Water Cafe...discover why people come from all over the world
for a cup of his clam chowder and a fresh grouper sandwich. That alone will
keep you coming back.
- Captain Memo's
Pirate Cruise...is definitely a unique experience. Enjoy sailing
in the gulf at sunset with an authentic pirate ship and a crew to match.
Try not to drink too much rum or hit The Beachouse with the cannon balls.
- The Jolley Trolley...is a great way to get around
beach. See all the sites on this old fashioned streetcar. Your first ride
is on The Beachouse...after that it'll set you back a whole 50 cents.
- Caledesi
Island State Park ...is a 600-acre island is ranked as having the
fifth best beach in the U.S. Talk about privacy and nature! For the dedicated
walker - take the trolley to the north end of the beach - jump off and walk
north along the beach to reach this isolated paradise. There is a comfort
station and loads of hiking trials. Gilligan never had it so good!
- The Clearwater Marine
Aquarium...is one of eight facilities in the U.S. authorized to
rescue and rehabilitate marine mammals. Home of Sunset Sam the dolphin,
known for his artwork and painting skills.
- The
Sea Screamer...is the world's largest speed boat! Enjoy a family
boat ride that's sure to rattle your cage...and they guarantee dolphin sightings.
- Starlite Dinner
Cruise...fine dining, first-rate musicians, and an ever-changing
water view make dining on the smooth inland waters a unique experience.
- Sun
Cruise Casino...If gambling is your
game, then this cruise is for you. Losing your shirt here is not a bad idea
if you're up on deck.
- Sand Key Park...Often ranked among the top beaches
in the country, a magnificent meeting of sand and sea.
- All Levels of Dining...experience 5-star restaurants
or some fish spread on a saltine. Our recommendation: brush your teeth after
eating the fish spread.
