I moved to the St.Pete Clearwater area 8 years ago, and have loved it ever since. I have been all over the world and stopped here and have never left(that should tell you something). White sandy beaches all over, crystal clear water. Centrally located on the west coast of Florida the St.Pete Clearwater area has everything you could ever want, amusment parks, beaches, shopping, boating, private islands (my personal favorite, just rent a boat 15min ride and there you are on your own insland) the islands are owned by the state and you can kayak or boat straight out to them just between Dunedin and Clearwater sit all day and take in the view. Plenty of great places to eat, some of the best fishing in the world, bars, nightlife, and after living here this long there is event almost everyday of the week, from art festivals, to concerts, shows, etc.
To sum it up we are very laid back here and like to have fun, and we graciously invite you to visit you won't be dissappointed with this area.
