Tampa 5-Day Itinerary | Ultimate Guide to Food, Fun & Beauty! 🔎

Finally writing this after a month’s delay. 😅 I visited Tampa in early October, squeezed between two hurricanes. My original plan (see Pic 2) got messed up because Clearwater was closed due to storm damage, but I adjusted on the fly and still had an amazing time! If you have a car and normal conditions, follow Pic 2 with these tweaks: 👉 Ulele – Great area to explore, and the sunset is gorgeous! Set aside at least 30 mins. 🌅 👉 Ringling Museum – Huge and so much fun! Go early—you’ll need at least 3 hours. 🏛️ 👉 Siesta Beach – The $1 oysters were terrible! Skip ’em! � 👉 Coastal Cruise – Bundle up! The sunset on the little island is breathtaking. 😻 👉 Weeki Wachee Boat Cruise – Book it ASAP when you arrive. I skipped kayaking, but if you do kayak, you can skip the cruise. 🚤 👉 Dinner at Siesta Beach – Walt's Fish Market Restaurant is a must! Fresh seafood daily. 🦞 👉 Extra Time? Add at least half a day in St. Petersburg and Siesta Key! 👉 St. Pete Extras – Don’t miss North Straub Park (sailboats galore ⛵) and Imagine Museum (mind-blowing glass art! 🎨). 👉 Siesta Key Extras – Check out St. Armands Circle, Lido Key Beach, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, and tapas at Beso! 🌿🍤 👉 Tarpon Springs – This Greek village is SO charming! Buy a natural sponge (great for skincare! 🧽) and feast on authentic Greek food—cheap and delicious! 🇬🇷 👉 Safety Harbour – A quirky artsy town near Clearwater. Visit Whimzeyland and Safety Harbor Art And Music Center! 🎭 👉 On the Way Back to Tampa – Stop at Thịnh An Kitchen & Tofu for amazing pho and Vietnamese snacks! The duck noodle soup and purple yam dessert are chef’s kiss! 🍜💜 👉 Final Must-Do – Snap a pic with the giant flamingo at the airport! 🦩 #Tampa #TampaTravel #TampaFoodie #TampaTourism #TampaBeaches #TampaAttractions #FloridaTravel #VisitTampa #TampaEats #Florida
