West Tampa Lifestyle
Shop, Eat, Fly
Flying in and out of Tampa is a breeze as Tampa International Airport continually ranks among the top in the country. And on your way to and from the airport, you can swing by International Plaza, which houses some of the area’s top retail stores and restaurants. And many strip malls are woven throughout the communities of West Tampa.
Take Me Out to the Ball Game
Check out a Tampa Bay Buccaneers or University of South Florida Bulls football game or megastar musicians at Raymond James Stadium. Catch a foul ball during the New York Yankees’ Spring Training or the Tampa Tarpons’ regular baseball season at Steinbrenner Field.
