Near ten of the world's best beaches (Clearwater Beach, Honeymoon Island, Sand Key, St. Petersburg, Caladesi Island's Nature Preserve). We are less than 2 hours from the Orlando/Kissimmee attraction area with Disney World, Universal Studioes, Sea World etc. Enjoy Tarpon Springs Sponging Docks and Tarpon Lake, which is terrific for fishing. Shallow beaches in area are very safe for children's swimming. You can rent a boat and race with the dolphins or take a trip on the Pirate ship. Lots of things for the children to see and do. Go to Clearwater Marine Aquarium or Tampa's Adventure Island and Busch Gardens. You can also go to Crystal Springs where the temperature is the same all year round and swim with the manatees. We have many gorgeous wildlife preserves. Go to visit the mangrove trees which have been building the barrier islands around Florida and provide breeding grounds for many of the fish in the area by day; and dine in fine restaurants by night! Great for family reunions!
