Best beach to visit while in Orlando
12 Posts
Hi we are hoping to fit in a couple of days on the beach while in Orlando once are 14 day theme tickets have run out (we are there for 3 weeks), we have a hire car. Has anyone any reccomendations as to beaches. We are two families with children ages from 8 to 15.

I would recommend St Pete's beach or Clearwater. We recently stayed in the Tradwinds Island Grand in St Pete's Beach, and it was really good and would suit families (we saw families there).
We got a good price on hotwire, $69 per night (there's a resort fee though to add to that).

If just visiting for the day, we go to Cocoa Beach as it is the closest to Orlando - about an hour away.
Oh, I assumed that it was for a few days (staying over a few nights), but on re-reading I might be wrong.
Yeh just for the day a couple of times in our 3rd week, driving from our orlando hotel
thanks for replies

I'd go for Clearwater Beach but depending on weather (it's been cold recently) why not take one day out to do the Cocoa Beach area and another day for Clearwater Beach. Both are between 1hr-1h.15m away from Orlando.
Theres a lovely beach on Bay Lake in Fort Wilderness near the Disney parks. 
Thanks for the replies we arrive in Orlando on 2nd April for 3 weeks. I hoping it will be warm then - 39 days to go
Have a look at the Weather Underground site- put in Orlando and about half way down you will see Almanac- you can pull up the weather history for the dates you will be there.

Clearwater is lovely, we went for the day but wish we had stayed, would loved to have seen the sunset there.
Clearwater and St Pete's are lovely beaches, clearwater has more going on for children with the Pier but both are gorgeous beaches and the sea is a warmer temperature to swim in than on Cocoa Beach (although Cocoa Beach is still nice). Weather will have warmed up nicely by April. Also in the St Pete's beach area there is a Dolphin Racer boat trip which you could go on, it's fab, the dolphins chase the boat!!

Have fun
