Welcome To Sand Key Island
Photos Etc of Sand Key Island
and Clearwater Beach Florida!
Sand Key Island is a barrier island on the West Coast of Florida, lies just south of Clearwater Beach Florida, across the bridge over Clearwater Pass.
Less than a mile wide, the western side of the island has sandy white beaches and a row of high-rise condominiums overlooking the Gulf of Mexico.
The eastern side of Sand Key fronts Clearwater Bay which is part of the Intracoastal Waterway. Condos, townhouses, and single-family homes line the East side of the island – many of which have boat docking facilities.
