CLEARWATER, FLORIDA - The City of Clearwater, Florida has a great resource available to keep the world updated on its development plans for Clearwater Beach.

The city sponsored web site is called BillionDollarBeach.com and appears to be current with the condo, development, and beautification projects underway on Clearwater Beach. The City of Clearwater is planning to be one of world’s most desirable tourist destinations. According to the site, there is more than a billion dollars of investment flowing into the Beach area.

In our opinion, Clearwater, Florida has always been one of the worlds most desirable tourist destinations. The new and “improved” will be more desirable to some and less desirable to others. Only time will tell how Clearwater Beach will end up. We will be watching closely.

Clearwater Beach is one of the most popular destinations on the Gulf Coast of Florida. It is famous for its beautiful white sandy beaches, fresh caught Grouper, Stone Crabs and its attractions such as Pier 60. It is host to events, nightly entertainment, and a multitude of beach activites. Visitors and residents equally enjoy the city’s assortment of regional delicacies. It is possible to have nearly any type of dining experience within minutes of the beach.

The history of Clearwater Beach dates back several centuries when it was home to the Timucuan, Calusa and Apalachee tribes who lived near the clear springs that gurgled from the banks into the bay. The springs, long since gone, were located along the high bluffs upon which City Hall and downtown Clearwater are now situated. Early settlers called it Clear Water Harbor, by which it was known until 1895 when Clearwater became one word. Harbor was dropped in 1906.
