Attractions and tips

Take advantage of the beautiful Florida weather and head to Pebble Creek Golf Club to spend some time on the back nine. Get in touch with nature by checking out Florida’s State Marine Mammal at the Tampa Electric Manatee Viewing Center.

Delight the kids, and sneak in some learning, with a visit to the Museum of Science and Industry. For a distinctive movie-going experience, visit the Tampa Theatre, a classic movie house built in 1926

If you want to visit Busch Gardens during your trip, consider a hotel in North Tampa, near the University of South Florida.
