Clearwater's Boat Ramp

Your gateway to the boating action around Clearwater Beach is the City of Clearwater's Seminole Street Boat Ramp. Located on the mainland, directly across from the beach, this ramp is the heavy hitter for area boaters. It is a busy ramp on the weekends, as it is used by all types of Pinellas boat owners...from the big game fishermen heading deep into the Gulf to the sport boats using their craft for bar hopping or sightseeing around the wonderful waters of Clearwater Beach.

Seminole Street Boating Photos

	When you arrive your heart will start pumping, as the views of Clearwater Harbor are wonderful. Straight ahead is the bayside of Clearwater Beach.
	Even the huge sailboats can now navigate under the new Memorial Causeway. No more waiting for the bridge to go up!
	"Ok, we have diet drinks, beer, sandwiches, chips...load up, we are ready to roll. We can be at the beach in 5 minutes!"
	This young man was helping out his Dad secure his boat in preparation for setting out onto the water.
	This is a hot area for fishing, as there are all sorts of islands, bridges, flats, or deep water to fish in.
	You won't be boating alone, as you will see all sorts of great boats enjoying the scene.
	Seminole Street Boat Ramp has a huge waterfront parking area, that overlooks the Memorial Causeway just behind it.
	The ramp is run by the City of Clearwater, is open 24/7, and has 6 ramps to use. We love that it does not close, as sunset and nighttime fishing is really fun.
	You do have to pay a boat ramp fee of $5 (residents) or $7 (non-residents). The bait shop is open from 6AM to sunset.
	The views from the ramp are so special. Just past the ramps is a small park area.

Clearwater Boating Questions or Comments

Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise

We have our own boat and love buzzing around the intercoastal and the gulf. Another thing we do often is dock up to the boater friendly restaurants in the area. But when we have friends in from out of town we always take them on Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise, it is a big hit. You board right there at the Clearwater Beach Marina, just across the street from Pier 60. What a nice time for all.

Boat License

We think that the boat license fees be increased by $1 per foot, using the funds to enhance the development of boat ramps, parking lots, and boat signs throughout the area. Non-powered boats will continue to not have to have a boat license. Overall, this will be great for the area and provide more access to boaters that don't live directly on the water, which is the case for the majority of boaters. Pinellas County needs help, and with property tax reducing the income stream, the funds will have to come from somewhere.
