Food Scene

Places that we have been and have had good food and drink.
What's good? Everything! It is a friendly, local find with great food and a relaxed atmosphere. Start with their delicious cheese platter. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu. We went here twice during our one week vacation. A must visit!

This hotel has a rooftop bar! All are welcome here. There is a large bar lounge as you walk in the front door and early evening there is local music talent usually playing. Head over to the elevators to the right and head on up to the rooftop. A beautiful spot to watch the sunset. Drinks are a bit pricey but you cannot beat the view.

Getting Around

Avoid the traffic, take the Jolley Trolley. For $5 you can ride all day and get on and off at the many stops. Runs North and South from Tarpon Springs to Clearwater. Took the Jolley Trolley to Clearwater and back one day, Tarpon Springs on another. Easy way to see the area stress free! Runs pretty close to schedule, may be off, (late) by 3-10 minutes, but we did not experience this. https://clearwaterjolleytrolley.com/

One of the few untouched islands along the Gulf Coast, Caladesi Island State Park is accessible only by boat, or kayak but is worth the extra effort. Whether it is a stroll along the island’s pristine beaches or a kayak trip through the bayside mangrove forest, a trip to Caladesi Island is an unforgettable experience. Take a nature trail walk to the historic Scharrer Homestead through the island’s interior and listen to the ocean breeze whisper through old-growth slash pines and feel the embrace of expansive live oaks.
