There are several very
nice public beaches just across Gandy Bridge or on Picnic Island (8 minutes from the house!). These are not
the tourist beaches, they are beaches that Tampa "Locals" who are
"in the know" use.... They have trees to set up your chairs under, or plenty of sunshine if you
prefer..
AND .... THEY ARE FREE !!!!!

Watch the dolphins and water birds in
your back yard
Several times each week, dolphins cruise behind the house.
The seawall behind our house is a favorite fishing area for fishermen who are trying to
catch snook, trout, sheepshead and redfish. This is probably the same reason the dolphins are so
interested in these canals.
We also have a Great Blue Heron strutting around daily as well as a "resident" pair of Mallard Ducks. These birds are frequent vistors to the neighborhood.
The canal is home and dining area for a neat flock of Pelicans.
They are ever vigilant for that free handout of fish ....
Soooooo ..... Keep an eye on your catch!

Besides watching birds and fishing, there are numerous events and activities within the
community. Look over a partial list by clicking HERE.

Restaurants and Shopping Centers:
There are several excellent restaurants within
20 minutes of the house. The tab at these can run from $20 to $50 per person.
I would not hesitate to recommend "The Colonnades" on Bayshore Blvd for a great evening out.
There are also numerous and very popular 'buffet' type restaurants that have excellent food
for reasonable prices... $7.00 to $10.00 per person. There are
several inexpensive seafood restaurants where excellent food costs
from $5 to $10 per person per meal.
An exceptionally GOOD seafood resturant is located
right across Gandy Bridge (5 minutes from the house), called "The Crab Shack".
This place has to be EXPERIENCED to be believed!

Lots of fast foods, burgers,
pizzas, subs, cubans, etc... Within 30 minutes there are 3 or 4 major
Malls with many different stores and shops.... There are also several
'tourist areas' that have shops that cater to tourists, if that is to
your taste.
