    Dunedin harbor

    I really have no complaints. The ferry back and forth from Dunedin to Clearwater Beach was on time and smooth sailing. The crew was nice and helpful. I look forward to another trip on the ferry during my next visit.

    Beautiful view going from Clearwater Beach to Clearwater at Coachman Park

    Clearwater Ferry is perfect for those times when there is a festival in Coachman Park, & you want to do the best of both worlds, fest and beach. Can't beat free parking, and a relaxing boat ride. The ferry can be found at Coachman Park and it goes to the Clearwater Beach marina by the tour boats and Crabby Bills. It is $8 round trip per person, & you can use cash or credit. It is dog friendly too. It is not far from the beach when you get to the marina. You simply walk across the street. There are bathrooms also once you get off the ferry to the right when you walk through the gates. It's definitely worth it. Clearwater Beach is currently lacking in parking and it cost an arm and a leg. If you don't want to seal with that, and traffic over the bridge, this is an excellent alternative.

    Found this by accident. I was going into Clearwater in one of my old race cars and got stuck in tourist traffic... needless to say old race car combined with a wall of traffic and 90° it started getting pissy and heating up so I jumped off 60 just to try to get some air thru the radiator and seen signs for the ferry so I followed them. To my surprise there was free parking and the fee for the ferry was as about as much as I would have paid for parking so that was a win. It was also a nice lil boat ride across that only me and my daughter were on. The captain of the boat saw some dolphins so he stopped the boat and pointed them out to my daughter which was really cool of him. This is a convenient way to get to Clearwater Beach without sitting in the wall of traffic over the bridge and risking your life at the roundabout.

    Easy fun ride, even saw some dolphins on our way back from Clearwater Beach Marina. Better than wrestling with other cars on the Causeway Bridge. Parking was easy and plentiful. Can't wait to go again!

    You can't beat this deal!! $8 per person for unlimited trips for a day between Clearwater and Clearwater Beach. Used them to bypass the bridge traffic to get to Clearwater for the centennial celebration and fireworks show. Took about 10 mins to make the trip. The captain and first mate were awesome and even gave us their boat cell number to call in case we came back late and they were not at the dock yet. I imagine this is probably the best deal if you are going to the beach because you can park for free near coachman park and take the ferry past the gridlocked bridge to the beach....unless you like sitting in traffic and driving in circles looking for parking spots!

    sunset ride over to the beach!

    Much better than trying to find parking on Clearwater Beach, save your money and the hassle, and ride the Ferry!

    Wow! What an experience! We took a 9am tour to Shell Key on Cap'n Dalton's boat. There were only…read moresix passengers on board, which meant there was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the sunshine. Dalton provided expert commentary about the area, even pointing out a few celebrity homes and yachts along the way. It was a gorgeous ride over to Shell Key, and we even saw a few dolphins along the way. Once on the island, we had about 45-50 minutes to explore the beaches and do a little snorkeling and shell-hunting. The island is aptly named, with rows and piles of shells along its white, sandy beaches. The water was warm and perfect for swimming. Soon enough we were back on board and heading back to the harbor. And that's when the magic happened: dolphins! Following along in our wake, and no doubt attracted to the enthusiastic squeals of one of our dolphin-loving fellow passengers, the dolphins put on quite a show. Even Dalton, who I assume sees a LOT of dolphins, was impressed by how long they followed in our wake and performed jumps and flips for us. It was truly one of the most remarkable experiences of my life! Thank you Dalton and Island Ferry for an amazing and memorable tour and one of the true highlights of our vacation!

Groups are small and the boats are very comfortable. They use pontoon boats so you have shade, which I definitely appreciated. The beach they took us to to snorkeling was gorgeous.
