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.
