Hey everyone! Travis back with some cool Tampa Tourism information that you don't usually see. Hillsborough County recently revised and updated their SouthShore: What A Difference A Bay Makes Ecotourism Guide. The guide highlights activities in the SouthShore area, as well as the small businesses in the community that cater to visitors and outdoor enthusiasts.
If you're in the mood for a little thrill and adventure this weekend, then take the whole family to Busch Gardens for the day! (They have a great deal for Florida residents; admission to Busch Gardens also gets you in free to Adventure Island -- two great parks, for the price of one!). Also, while you're there, be sure to check out Darren Romeo, a world-renowned magician as he performs live every night at the park!
Maybe the kids are up for an undersea adventure, in which case they would love the Florida Aquarium (great for both the young ones and adults)! After the aquarium you could try a game of bowling or just relax with dinner in Channelside (either way, make sure you cool down with some ice cream). But don't forget about the Channelside Cinemas IMAX theatre and be sure to catch a showing of Disney's G-Force movie in 3-D!!! Check it all out @
Now, if you ladies are planning a girls' weekend, then I've got just the thing -- why not some Tampa Bay shopping? Between the International Plaza & Bay Street, Channelside shops, Ybor City, and Old Hyde Park Village boutiques you're sure to be busy! Make some time to enjoy a casual lunch with friends and don't forget to make an appointment at one of the many luxury salon & spas in Tampa Bay for some much needed R&R (as you primp for the evening)
Gentlemen, I haven't forgetten... while the girls are off getting their massages and manicures, how about a man day? Try to golf Tampa Bay at one of the many courses such as Saddlebrooke Resort or TPC Tampa Bay.
Lastly, for those of you still not tired.... once the sun sets be sure to check out Tampa Bay nightlife! Whether you're headed to the Green Iguana in Ybor City or the SOHO strip in South Tampa -- you'll always find great dining, drinks, and dancing everywhere you go.
