Don't visit Madeira Beach without stopping off at John's Pass Village & Boardwalk, a top spot for shopaholics. Hotels.com travelers also say the area is full of friendly people and has lots of nice beaches.

If want to top up your tan, you might want to head out to Clearwater Beach, located 0.5 mi (0.7 km) from central Clearwater Beach. Catch the sunset by the shore at Pier 60 Park, just a short walk away.
