Why the Owner Chose Beach Cottages II
Our family started coming to this area in the early 1960's. We've been to other areas in Florida, but when we decided to purchase a condo for ourselves, we wanted to be in an area that had plenty of things to do. Not only for us but for our children and grandchildren.
Clearwater Beach, the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, many shops & restaurants.
"The Pier" with an aquarium, restaurants & Shops. St. Petersburg Museum of History. Salvador Dali Museum. Great Explorations – The Hands On Museum (children's museum). Sunken Gardens.
Shopping along the boardwalk and several restaurants. Boat & jetski rental, fishing trip, para-sailing, etc.
Great beaches, shelling & historical site (fort). Bike rentals too.
Fabulous zoo with plenty for children to do. Ride a Camel, feed a Giraffe, petting area, etc.
