Hess Express is the only gas station on the north end of Clearwater Beach and one of two gas stations on the entire beach. It has eight pumping stations, so customers never have to wait to fill up. It has twelve parking spaces and one handicapped space. It has an ice machine outside to fill up a cooler before heading to the beach and an ATM machine inside, if cash is needed. There is also a vacuum station to help get the sand out of the car before leaving the beach.
Hess Express shares space with a Dunkin Donuts, Godfathers Pizza and Blimpie subs, if packing the cooler before going to the beach is an option. It also carries a wide assortment of other grocery items, such as milk, bread, beer, tobacco and lottery tickets.
