Take a day to play in Tampa Bay!
From the roar of the roller coaster to the serenity of a canoe ride down the Hillsborough River, we have something for everyone. Enjoy our vibrant West Coast community with a unique blend of urban excitement set amongst nature preserves, parks, ocean, rivers, historic districts, and thriving new neighborhoods.
What can you pack into a play day? Sunscreen, bathing suit, towel, an extra T-shirt, and walking shoes and you’re prepared for Busch Gardens, Lowry Park Zoo, the Florida Aquarium, Tampa Duck Adventures, and tons of fun.
Prefer the quieter destinations? Located along the Hillsborough River in downtown Tampa, visit the Tampa Museum of Art and book tickets for a show at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center. Love nature? Rent a canoe and paddle the river, or walk the boardwalk in Lettuce Lake Park. Enjoy the natural habitat and don’t forget your camera!

Historic Ybor City is a great place for lunch. The Cuban sandwiches are hot and crisp, the cigars are hand-rolled, and the streets are colorful and fun.
A day without sports—no way! Catch a game from the bleachers—Bucs, Lightning, Storm, Yankees spring training, or the Devil Rays. And every day is a golf day—Central West Florida region boasts over 137 golf courses, resorts, and clubs.
Catch the rays from our nearby beaches or Bay waters—enjoy swimming, boating, sailing, jet skiing, parasailing . . . and of course, you can’t think beaches without thinking of seafood. From casual fare to fine dining overlooking the bay, the most succulent seafood under the sun is right here.
Whatever you choose to do you are going to love it, we do!
