Information about Tampa
Why Tampa? Tampa is a busy city in the curve of Old Tampa Bay. The city benefits from the tropical climate of Florida, and visitors can experience warm weather all year round. The city has something for everyone! For adrenaline junkies, there is Adventure Island and the Busch Gardens amusement park with hurtling roller coasters circling the sky and, for the evenings, a nightlife to match. Those who enjoy a slower pace, there are an array of restaurants, shopping centres and museums to frequent. Animal lovers are not forgotten with the Tampa Zoo or the Florida Aquarium.
