I live in Tampa and consider it one of the best vacation spots in Florida. You'll find plenty of
attractions in Tampa including Busch Gardens, Adventure Island, and Lowry Park Zoo. It's a short 20 minute drive to the beautiful beaches in St. Petersburg and Clearwater and an hour plus drive to SeaWorld and Disney. We have great restaurants, an active nightlife especially in Ybor City and Channelside, family entertainment locations as well as gambling at the Seminole HardRock Casino, thoroughbred horse racing at Tampa Bay Downs, and Greyhound Racing for adults. You won't be disappointed.
