When you’re in Tampa go to Ulele! Its my absolute favorite restaurant. It’s right by the river which you can stroll before or after and next to a food hall called Armature Works!

OMG my mouth is watering just thinking about Berns! 🤤 why don’t you stay in Clearwater for a few days? It’s only a short drive (or Uber) from there!

Well...if Google maps can't help you ....I would definitely take an Uber/lift ....or a flight lol.

Google Tampa Riverwalk ..it's a trail along the water with restaurants along the way

Not on the beach but Oxford exchange, cask social kitchen and American Social are top 3

Orlando isn’t too far, but so you would have Disney and Universal also. There is the Florida Aquarium https://www.flaquarium.org/ In tampa. Clearwater has a lot of little shops and things around the beach and the boardwalk with warm water because of the gulf.

Frenchy's on Clearwater Beach has the best she crab soup aside from Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. Colombia restaurant in Ybor City for the best Hispanic/Cuban food.

Jax to St. Augustine, West Palm Beach, on the gulf coast above Naples is captiva/sanibel island, siesta key, nokomis, st pete or Redington beach. All good spots.

Armature works, meat market, hula bay, salt shack, park n Rec, SoHo area- st Pete area is fun too Love Tampa! Have fun
