Across the bay of Tampa is neighboring St. Petersburg and neighboring Clearwater. Visitors, particularly travelers from the northern states, come here to escape the cold winters and enjoy the beaches of the ocean and the mild climate.
Tampa
Tampa is located on an inlet on the west coast of Florida, just across the bay from St. Petersburg. Tampa is particularly popular with families who come to enjoy its many wildlife-filled attractions.
