Yes! After Disney we wanted a little down time before heading back home so we spent a few days at Clearwater Beach. We had a hotel that was a 5 minute walk to the Gulf of Mexico and it was just perfect. I loved that we didn't have to navigate just too much to have some real great memories at the beach. Clearwater beach was really white sand, clean and had a large range of shells and shark teeth to find. We even found 2 washed up starfish while we were there! Don't forget the sunscreen! I never remember that the sun is different here, that at home in Minnesota. Just before the beach, there was a bin of beach toys to borrow and return and a little lending library. It was handy so we didn't feel like we needed to purchase beach toys and then tote them home. Our oldest, loved finding this little library to find a new book to read in the sand.
