Could anyone out there help us out. We are from Missouri and just what a nice beach without kids or husbands!! Thanks!!!

My personal favorites are Sand Key Beach and Treasure Island, both of which are a bit south of Clearwater Beach and are much nicer (in my opinion), as well as less crowded and largely unvisited by tourists. Sand Key Beach is particularly secluded since it is the southernmost beach in that area and it is actually a park as well . If you would like to venture even further south (down by the Ft. Myers area), you will find Sanibel and Captiva Island to be absolutely beautiful. Well, good luck on your search and enjoy your stay in Florida! Reply    Reply with quote    Contact traveling_gal
