This park is one of the cutest in Tampa! It has everything: a splash pad, a trail, a large pond with a boardwalk, a playground, skatepark, ninja course, dog parks, and a fitness area! It is very well kept and looks beautiful in every season!
Carrollwood Village Park
This park is a nature oasis! It has beautiful trails and scenery as well as playgrounds for the little ones!
Lettuce Lake Park
This beach is like a mini island right in Tarpon Springs. The water gets very clear and there is a shallow bed of seaweed off the shore that is wonderful for snorkeling and seeing fish!
Fred Howard Park
Believe it or not, there is a beach access right on the St. Pete pier! The water is safe for swimming and SO CLEAR. You can also paddleboard and kayak in these areas as well! I love going to this little beach because it’s right in downtown St.Pete an...
St. Pete Pier
This beach is one of the more secluded and scenic beaches in the Tampa area. There is a small fee to get in but very affordable and so worth it. The beaches don’t get nearly as crowded as Clearwater or St.Pete and the water is even more beautiful and...
Fort De Soto Park
This preserve is so serene and there are multiple trails to choose from. One of the trails will lead you to this tall, scenic lookout that allows you to look over Tampa Bay and the surrounding areas.
Weedon Island Preserve
This preserve is so scenic and offers multiple trails to explore! It rarely gets too busy and whenever I’ve gone I’ve had pretty much the whole place to myself!
Weedon Island Preserve
This is hands down my favorite Saturday morning activity! There are so many interesting vendors and it’s in the middle of downtown St.Pete, so once you’re done at the market, you can walk around and grab a bite to eat!
Mezzo Market
This market is right in the middle of Carrollwood and is super cute. It’s on the smaller side but there are still so many cool vendors to see and experience!
Carrollwood Market — Tampa Bay Markets
Restaurants
This Michelin recognized taco spot is arguably one of the best Mexican eats in all of Tampa. It’s not as popular as the other famous taco spot, Bartaco, but it is so much tastier and way more authentic.
Streetlight Taco
My all time favorite restaurant in Tampa! This place has been around since I was a baby and the food quality has remained just as good if not better, which is why it’s no surprise it’s been around for so long. This restaurant offers authentic Colombi...

Best Asian street food place I’ve been to! It’s right in Ybor and a perfect place to stop in for a bite. They offer different Asian cuisine dishes such as Indian, Vietnamese, and more. The prices are also so affordable! I will also note that the Thai...
ASIATIC STREETFOOD & Noodle BAR
This food truck offers the BEST wings in Tampa. Literally the best. They offer so many sauces and flavors and the wings are cooked to perfection. My husband and I dream about these wings!
