Tampa has grown into one of Florida's leading business centers, with strong finance, insurance, healthcare, defense and technology sectors and the corporate offices that come with them. MacDill Air Force Base, home to U.S. Central Command and U.S. Special Operations Command, anchors a large defense and contractor community. The Riverwalk, Water Street and the Channel District give downtown a walkable waterfront, while Ybor City keeps its cigar-factory history alive with Cuban sandwiches, historic social clubs and late-night music.
Leisure travelers come for the Gulf beaches of Pinellas County, spring training baseball, Buccaneers and Lightning games, Busch Gardens and world-class inshore fishing for snook and redfish. Flying privately into the Tampa Bay area avoids long airline connections and makes it simple to string together a multi-stop trip along the Gulf Coast, from Sarasota and Naples to the south up to the Panhandle, or across the state to the Atlantic side without battling I-4. Book the whole airplane, bring the golf clubs and the fishing gear, and set your own departure time.

Things to do in Tampa
When to go. October through May brings Tampa's best weather, with warm, dry days and comfortable evenings. Late January brings the Gasparilla Pirate Festival, when a pirate ship sails into downtown and parades fill Bayshore Boulevard, and February and March add spring training baseball across the region. Summers are hot and humid with frequent afternoon thunderstorms, and hurricane season runs from June through November, so late-summer travelers should keep an eye on the tropics.
