A beautiful location to take photos with your friends or treat yourself to a delicious breakfast/lunch. I love the atmosphere of the Oxford Exchange when I want to unwind and have a nice day alone or with a few friends.
Oxford Exchange
If you are looking to attend a play or like myself, a ballet this is the place to go in Tampa. Its located in downtown Tampa and its a beautiful theater.

A great spot for shopping and enjoying a day or night out in Tampa. If you enjoy entertainment and shooting content or pictures of others or yourself…this is a great area to do that!
Water Street Tampa
I am not a big beach person in general, really any large body of water. However, Honeymoon Island is a great beach to go to for a fun day of relaxing. The beach is huge! with plenty of space for families and lots of fun for BBQ, swimming and tanning ...
Honeymoon Island State Park
My favorite mall to go to. They have the best stores and they range from high end such as LV to H&M. They offer more of a variety in shopping. Also, there is a Crate & Barrel next door.
International Plaza and Bay Street
A super cute children's museum. I think this is a good option for toddlers and younger children but there are so many fun activities and games for them to do in the museum.
Glazer Children's Museum
I have only been once because I am not a very big gambler but they have gambling for those who love it, an amazing spa for relaxation and restaurants to enjoy. This is a popular place to visit here in Tampa.
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa
A great place to see a lightning game, any concert or family events such as Disney on Ice. I love the area and I always have a great time at Amelie.
Amalie Arena
Can't leave out this one! I love a good theme park day! They have amazing rides and fun things to do for the kids. A great place to also go for holidays.
Busch Gardens Tampa Bay
OMG! the best to go to especially in the heat here in Florida. I love Adventure Island. One of my favorite water parks. You can have fun on the rides or chill in the lazy river.
Adventure Island Tampa Bay
A great place to see the marine animals! If this is something youre interested in. Its a great aquarium.
The Florida Aquarium - Google Search
If you're in Tampa this is a great place to go for a walk or run. Also plenty of shops and places to grab something to eat and just hang out in Tampa.
Tampa Riverwalk
Such a gorgeous hotel! Also great for photo opportunities if youre in Tampa. I highly recommend this hotel if you're staying in Tampa.

If you're into seeing the homes of celebrities in the area or when you go to visit a new city on vacation this is a great activity to do.
Tampa Celebrity Homes Boat Tour
A great place to take the kids or go on a family day out. I once stayed overnight with my girl scouts group with the manatees and it is a core memory for me. I loved it!
ZooTampa at Lowry Park
A great place to hear live music, eat food and walk around the shops as well. Its more a laid back good time than going all out to an amusement park.
Sparkman Wharf
A great option for drinking and around Halloween or if you and your friends or family enjoy scary stuff and want to drink. It's a great option for a fun night out.
Tampa Ghost Tours | Nightly Spirits
I did this with a group a friends recently and it was such a good time. You are brought to about 5 different breweries and can enjoy new food and alcohol while touring around tampa/ybor.
Brew Bus Brewing | Florida’s Ultimate Craft Beer Experience
A great option to have some fun on the water. The options are around the tampa bay area but they have jetskis available or cars you can drive on water. I am not a fan of the beach but a great option for others.
Wet Rentals & Tours
Another great activity on the water and with dolphins. I great family activity.
