About Tampa

There's a sunny side to this West Coast community that makes this a true hot spot among the world's destinations. Naturally there's lots of water and sunshine. But you'll also discover an area that's alive with the arts, seriously sports-minded, always planning a party or parade, and filled with only-in-Tampa Bay places to go, things to do and sights to see. Whatever your pleasure, you'll find it in Tampa Bay!

Things To Do

Need to get around? No Problem! The area's transportation system creates tremendous connectivity between hotels, the convention center, and entertainment venues. The historic electric streetcar and the in-town trolleys are fun, hassle-free ways to get around the downtown/convention center core.

The In Town Trolley, a rubber-tired trolley, connects downtown hotels to the Tampa Convention Center and the TECO Line Streetcar System. It operates weekdays and provides an additional connection between downtown and local dining, shopping and entertainment destinations. Riders can make convenient connections between the rubber-wheeled trolley and the electric streetcar allowing car-free travel to historic Ybor City and numerous other attractions.
