If the Tampa area were somehow magically transported 100 miles inland, there would
still be plenty of exciting reasons to visit. Tampa offers a bustling arts scene,
professional sports, upscale shopping - even an African-themed zoo and thrill park.
But Tampa, of course, is perfectly placed along the Gulf Coast, enticing tourists
to get out and enjoy the perpetually sunny days at coastal parks and white-sand beaches.
(Forbes recently named Tampa the fifth best outdoor city in America.)
Nearby St. Petersburg also offers many fine examples of serene sands and metropolitan
conveniences. When guests aren't enjoying the warm, Gulf waters, they can tour one
of six museums, visit art galleries, and enjoy quality shopping and dining - all on
or near the waterfront. Much of the dining and entertainment can be found on the Pier,
which includes a multi-story inverted pyramid with an observation deck that affords
excellent sunset views.
Endless Vacation Rentals offers one and two-bedroom luxury condos in the middle of
it all, each with the quality views and comforts you would expect in a home away from
home.
Located on the Intracoastal Waterway and just across the street from the Gulf of Mexico,
Legacy Vacation Club Indian Shores offers a tranquil location from which to explore
the Clearwater, Tampa and S ... Read More >>

taco shell together.

and now better reflects the skateboard culture of chef Zack Gross. The food, however,
is as enticing as ever: Gross was recently named a James Beard semifinalist.
