The short version, from the cited sources
Clearwater Beach fronts the Gulf of Mexico on a Florida barrier island with sand so fine and white it squeaks underfoot, the product of quartz washed down from the Appalachians over millions of years. The water is warm, shallow and usually calm, and the nightly Sunsets at Pier 60 festival turns the fishing pier into a street-performance stage. It routinely places at the top of American beach rankings, with the crowds to match.
