Editor's Itinerary: Tampa Bay for People Interested in History
"Sand Key Park is a barrier island linked to Clearwater Beach. This public park is divided into a beachfront section and a traditional park area. Park visitors can enjoy grills, playgrounds, and picnic shelters before heading to the beach to hike the nature trail, swim in the ocean, and purchase beachside concessions."
"This 51-acre nature preserve is filled with trails, boardwalks, and ponds. The park’s ecosystem is vast and varied – you’ll encounter plenty of birds, gopher turtles, raccoons, and other animals under the oak tree canopies. Visitors can take a self-guided tour of Moccasin Lake Nature Park, or they can call to schedule an educational tour."
"Set on 51 acres of parkland, the nature reserve is one of the top places to see in Clearwater for hikers and bird-watchers. Hop onto the park’s trails & boardwalks for a hike under a shaded canopy of oaks and magnolias. Meandering over creeks and ponds, look out several native Florida species like raccoons, turtles, and gophers."
"If you're vacationing in Tampa and are looking for a beach close by that offers powdery white sand for lounging, calm water for cooling off and shelters for picnics, then Davis Beach is for you. This is the closest beach to downtown Tampa and the locals' favorite tailgate spot. Davis offers ideal proximity to the airport for travelers who value efficiency."

"Spend the morning fishing on the Skyway Bridge or shopping in Downtown St. Petersburg. While in Downtown, visit the Salvador Dalí Museum, intriguing both inside and out. Catch an evening baseball game with the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field, with the required dinner of ballpark hot dogs and cold beers. Alternatively, enjoy seafood and waterfront views at 400 Beach Seafood and Tap House, within walking distance of The Vinoy Renaissance Resort & Golf Club, where you should stay for the night."
"Looming across the entrance to Tampa Bay is the four-mile-long Sunshine Skyway Bridge, connecting St. Petersburg to Manatee County on I-275. The bridge was built in the 1980s after the original bridge collapsed after being hit by a freighter during a storm. For a toll of only $1.50, it’s worth the ride to see this architectural wonder and get a high view of Tampa Bay."
"Located in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in all of Tampa—Hyde Park—this restaurant is not far from downtown Tampa. It offers Modern American cuisine in an upscale environment. If you are an adventurous foodie, then you’ll enjoy this local favorite. Try the sous vide lobster, oxtail poutine, cornmeal crusted fried quail or one of the artisanal cheese platters."
"The Pier 60 Marina Hotel has a great smaller homely hotel feel rather than a huge resort feel. It’s right on the beach, welcoming you with an included breakfast, and from there, you’re welcome to explore the restaurants, the pool (with a kiddie pool included) and the Pier 60 venue offering entertainment, which is right by the hotel. Several room options are available, some with a balcony and view, and some not."
"Lounge on our private deck overlooking the Marina and Harbor, dive into our refreshing pool, or work out in the fitness center, complete with the latest equipment. End the night watching a beautiful sunset at Jimmy's Crow's Nest Bar, located on our 10th floor. Address:101 Coronado Dr, Clearwater Beach, FL 33767"

"For the days when you need a relaxing spot to clear your mind, Ignacio Haya Linear Park is the perfect park for that. The vibe here is very nature-focused and calming. Ignacio Haya Linear Park is a great park in Seminole Heights to cross paths with other dog walkers too."
"Spanning along the Hillsborough River, Rivercrest Park in Seminole Heights offers a pier, fishing docks, a canoe launch, walking trails, a playground, picnic tables, grills, and more. We love going here for a grill out day with the whole family. Being able launch your kayak and cook up with burgers sounds like an ideal weekend day."
