ABOUT TAMPA

The Tampa Bay area is located on Florida's Central West Coast and offers the diversity of a casual, family-friendly lifestyle in a cosmopolitan city.  Recognized as one of the nation's fastest growing cities, Tampa is a bustling port town that boasts multi-ethnic diversity and a revitalized downtown waterfront.  Visitors can take a leisurely stroll along Bayshore Boulevard, dubbed the "world's largest sidewalk;" or wander the quaint streets of Ybor City, which was once known as the "cigar capital of the world," and is now a city-within-a-city offering Latin shops, ethnic restaurants, art galleries, and nightclubs.

Local attractions and activities include the 300-acre Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, which is ranked among the top four zoos in the country; the Florida Aquarium; Adventure Island water park; and several world-renowned golf courses.  As for sports, the Buccaneers (NFL), Lightning (NHL), and Devil Rays (MLB), call Tampa Bay home.  Tampa is also the spring training headquarters of the New York Yankees.

Our arts and cultural activities include the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, with a full complement of performances; the Tampa Museum of Art, which features the Southeast's largest collection of Greek and Roman art; and the Henry B. Plant Museum, which is the site of the old Tampa Bay Hotel and a national historic landmark.  We also have several colleges and universities in the area.

Our average annual temperature of 72 degrees allows year-round enjoyment of many outdoor activities.  Our waterfront includes two bays, two rivers, and many area lakes.  Our central location is just minutes from the Gulf beaches and easy access to other day-trip destinations such as Disney World in Orlando and the Kennedy Space Center in Titusville.
