πΊπΈ 4 Days & 3 Nights in Tampa ποΈ Car-Free Fun Guide
Since Iβd already explored most of Florida during undergrad, Tampa had been on my list β finally made it there for a relaxed week-long getaway! π The Florida Aquarium Ticket: $30 ποΈ Located not far from downtown Tampa β itβs huge! Allow at least 2 hours to explore. You can touch jellyfish and baby sharks π¦ (though shark touch-time is limited β we missed it π’). Penguin encounters are also timed β they bring them to the main hall! π§ π Weeki Wachee Kayaking 2-person kayak: ~$60 total after tax π£ββοΈ Since we didnβt rent a car, we picked a spot closer to the city. Round-trip Uber was ~$130 β about 1 hour from downtown. Weβre two girls with zero kayaking experience, but finished in under 2 hours! Going with the current made it easy β just had to steer (we crashed into branches a few times π). We even spotted a baby alligator! π Booked the 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM slot β it was already getting hot. Sunscreen is a MUST! βοΈ π Little Toot Dolphin Adventures Boat ticket: $27 + tax β΅οΈ We took the 5 PM tour and saw SO many dolphins π¬ β including babies! π¬π The boat wasnβt crowded. The stern creates waves πββοΈ β best spot for viewing! π Clearwater Beach White sands ποΈ + perfect for chilling + sunset views π + super photogenic! #Tampa #TravelNoCar #ClearwaterBeach #DolphinWatching #FloridaGetaway
