Situated on Florida’s west coast, Tampa, and the Tampa
Bay area, offer miles of glistening waterways and sandy shorelines
and close proximity to the nearby Gulf beaches. Tampa’s
waterfront consists of Hillsborough Bay and Tampa Bay, the beautiful
Hillsborough and Alafia rivers, and several lakes. Here, you’ll
find a unique blend of urban excitement and natural beauty.
In Tampa, you’ll never run out of things to do. You
can thrill to roller coasters in the morning, catch some rays
on the beach in the afternoon, and catch a big-league game
at night. The area offers a world of shopping and an exciting
and diverse nightlife; miles of white sand beaches, jet skiing,
parasailing, boating, and succulent seafood; Busch Gardens,
the Florida Aquarium, the Museum of Science & Industry
and Lowry Park Zoo; and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Devil Rays,
and Lightning.
Tampa Bay is really many distinct communities connected by
the bay waters. Tampa Bay is not only the most populous and
affluent metropolitan area in Florida, but also the state’s
number one television market.
Tampa is a multi-cultural city with a thriving and powerful
Hispanic population where every Latin American country is
represented. Around 10% of Tampa's population are Latino,
and one out of every three people in Tampa bears a Hispanic
surname. Tampa Bay is such a collage of cultures that the
area has been named one of the five most diverse, integrated
urban areas in the country by the U.S. Census Bureau.
The Tampa bay area offers a rich, inviting mix of incredible
beaches; year-round recreation; fun and excitement; and cultural
diversity.
And did we mention that the average temperature is a comfortable
72 degrees?
