Outdoor Activities in Tampa and Surrounding Areas

With the enticing Florida weather in mind, it makes sense to sample one of Tampa's outdoor activities. Here are our recommendations:

• Busch Gardens Tampa Bay: Combining theme park thrills with animal encounters, Busch Gardens is the most popular attraction in Tampa. With multiple rollercoasters, thousands of wildlife, and endless activities available, it's no surprise many people venture outside the Orlando theme park bubble to the acclaimed Busch Gardens.

• ZooTampa at Lowry Park: For a more tranquil setting than Busch Gardens, this award-winning zoo is the place to go. With 63 acres to explore, you can get up close and feed rhinos, giraffes, and other popular wildlife.
• Lettuce Lake Park: Located just outside Tampa's city limits, Lettuce Lake Park is a charming 240-acre space where you can rent a canoe, go up the three-story observation tower, and search the swamp for wildlife. 

Culture and Entertainment in Tampa and Beyond

There are numerous reasons why Tampa is one of the most visited cities in Florida, and its selection of culture and entertainment attractions is a big reason. Below are the highlights:

• The Florida Aquarium: With habitats that range from Stingray Beach (touch the rays as they glide through the shallow pool) to The Wetlands of Florida (home to gators, birds, and river otters), The Florida Aquarium has something for everyone to enjoy.
• Salvador Dalí Museum: Situated just outside Tampa, this museum, which houses an unparalleled collection of Dalí works, is the ideal place to visit for fans of the legendary Spanish artist.
• J.C. Newman Cigar Company: Tampa was once known as Cigar City, and you can get a peek into this history by taking a tour of the J.C. Newman Cigar Company, a city institution since 1895.
• Henry B. Plant Museum: Showcasing the Victorian lifestyle in its full glory, this museum, situated in the 1891 Tampa Bay hotel, gives you the chance to step back in time and gain an authentic perspective of Florida's Gilded Age.
