South Tampa, Florida

South Tampa, Florida

South Tampa is a region of several neighborhoods in Tampa, Florida and is located on the Interbay Peninsula. It consists of communities like SOHO, Hyde Park, Harbour Island, Davis Island and Palma Ceia.

Living in the South and Downtown Tampa areas allows you to alternate between a lifestyle that includes fine dining off South Howard at places like The Haven or Bern’s Steakhouse,  riding your bike along the waters of Bayshore Blvd. to taking in a electrifying hockey game at the modern Amelia Arena.

There is no shortage of things to do everyday of the week for the whole family, couples or the single professional. Take in a play like Wicked at the Straz Center of Performing Arts. Enjoy the many festivities during the famous Gasparilla Pirate Invasion. Or, simply stroll on a lazy Sunday and find your own hidden treasures.

You will not be disappointed by living in what is some of the Best of the Best that Tampa offers.
