A leadership summit on the Gulf coast in December trades conference-centre sterility for something noticeably more relaxed: warm afternoons, water on three sides, and the kind of setting where the useful conversations happen on a terrace rather than in a breakout room. Clearwater's downtown has been steadily redeveloped, and the causeway crossing to the barrier island takes only a few minutes by road.
Tampa International (TPA) is the main gateway, around 35 minutes by road, with St Pete-Clearwater (PIE) closer at twenty minutes but serving fewer routes. Rideshare is readily available from both. A rental car remains the most flexible option given limited regional transit. Interstate connections make St Petersburg and Tampa easy day trips of under an hour.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Kiwitaxi. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Coverage across the Tampa Bay area is consistently good on all major networks. International visitors will find an eSIM cheaper than carrier roaming plans. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
The Dali Museum. A purpose-built museum in St Petersburg holding the largest Dali collection outside Spain, wrapped in a geodesic glass shell overlooking the bay. The chronological hang makes the artist's development unusually clear. Two hours, about forty minutes away by road. Tickets on Tiqets →
Honeymoon Island State Park. A barrier island north of Clearwater with osprey nesting sites, a virgin slash pine forest trail and shelling beaches. Quiet on weekday mornings. Two to three hours, and the same landing serves the ferry across to Caladesi Island.
Sunset at Pier 60. A nightly craft and street-performer market on Clearwater Beach timed to sunset, running for around two hours each evening in good weather. Free and genuinely local in feel. Arrive an hour before dusk to see the full setup.
St Petersburg Waterfront. A continuous stretch of parks, marinas and museums along Tampa Bay, anchored by the pier development and a strong mural district inland. Walkable end to end in about ninety minutes. Best combined with an evening in the Central Avenue restaurant strip.
How far is Tampa airport?
Roughly 35 minutes by road to Clearwater, subject to traffic on the Courtney Campbell Causeway during peak hours.
Is the beach usable in December?
Yes for walking and sunbathing, with daytime highs around 24 degrees Celsius. Gulf water temperatures are cool but tolerable for shorter swims.
Is rideshare readily available?
Yes, throughout the Tampa Bay area. A rental car is still worth considering for reaching state parks and neighbouring cities.
