Champion Sports Teams

I recommend all that the St. Petersburg, FL area has to offer; award winning beaches, world class art museums & theaters, local markets & shopping, large & small live music venues, local nightlife & thriving downtown scene, scenic parks on the banks of Tampa Bay with free events and art festivals, fine cuisine & casual dining restaurants, pirate themed annual Gasparilla Festival events, and champion local sports teams: Tampa Bay Rays, Tampa Bay Lightning, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tampa Bay Rowdies.

Busch Gardens Tampa, with some of the biggest & baddest roller coasters in the world, is a short trip east over the bridge. Walt Disney World, Sea World and Universal Studios theme parks are less than a two hour drive northeast to Orlando. Florida residents qualify for discounts. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa provides gaming and entertainment for additional thrill seeking. Head south over the majestic Sunshine Skyway Bridge to Sarasota, home of world renowned Ringling College of Art & Design and the Ringling Museum. Take some time for lunch and shopping at  St. Armand's Circle. 

With 244 miles of shoreline, the St. Pete - Clearwater area is accepted as America's boating & sailing capital. Florida salt life affords outrageous fishing opportunities. The year-round climate is perfect for the country club lifestyle of golf, tennis and swimming pools. Are you dreaming of boating lessons or flight instruction? The St. Petersburg Yacht Club is located across from the municipal marina on Tampa Bay, where you will also find the runway of the public Albert Whitted Airport. While at the downtown waterfront, don't miss sightseeing at the newly redesigned St. Pete Pier. 

Love your dog? We do too! St. Pete was dubbed the most dog friendly city in the country. We have dog friendly bars & restaurants, and an abundance of dog parks. Historic Ybor City celebrates the cigar industry, and has a vibrant nightlife with bars, clubs, restaurants, and an Iprov Comedy Club. For those of you who frequently travel, Tampa International Airport is the #3 top rated airport in the nation. Commercial cruise lines set sail from the Port of Tampa to destinations in the Caribbean. Boasting average temperatures of 74 degrees F in the winter, and 361 sunny days per year, the Pinellas county and Tampa Bay area has it all.
