This weekend A Dolphin's Tale hits theaters, bringing the true story of Winter the dolphin to the big screen. The movie is based on "Winter," a dolphin rescued by the Clearwater Marine Aquarium after getting caught in a crab trap. And though she lost her tail, an amazing team of doctors and vets were able to create a prosthetic tail, saving her life.

In honor of the new movie, several Clearwater Beach, Florida hotels and resorts are offering special packages, including discounted rates or special offers at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Each room rate also includes a donation to CMA to help build Winter a new home.
