Clearwater Beach Without a Car: How to Do It

You don't need a car on Clearwater Beach. Here's how to explore the island by foot, bike, and trolley.

By Stay & Play Clearwater

Everything Is Walkable

As our owner Andrew Beltz told Travel + Leisure, 'Everything on the island is walkable and so accessible.' Clearwater Beach was built for pedestrians.

Ride the Jolly Trolley

The Jolly Trolley connects Clearwater Beach to St. Pete Beach with stops at multiple beaches — an easy, affordable way to island-hop.

Use Your Complimentary Bike

Every Stay & Play guest gets a beach cruiser. Ride to Pier 60, the aquarium, and your favorite restaurant in minutes.

Book a Golf Cart

For the whole family, a 4- or 6-seater golf cart makes beach-hopping effortless.
