Things to do in Tampa

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.
