Things To Do
Welcome to Tampa! The Marriott Water Street sits along the Hillsborough River and Riverwalk Tampa. The Riverwalk provides access to eateries/bars, water activities, sights of Tampa Bay, with many walkers/runners and bikers. We enjoy our sports team in Champa Bay! The Tampa Bay Lightning play just down the street from our hotel at the Amalie Arena. Along the Riverwalk is Sparkman Wharf, where you can sample a taste of Tampa and watch cruise ships dock. Nearby you will find the Columbia Cafe (smaller outdoor version of The Columbia Restaurant), the Tampa History Center, and the Florida Aquarium. Also along the Riverwalk is the popular Armature Works with a variety of vendors and indoor/door dining. Tampa offers a free streetcar (every 15 minutes), access across the street from the Tampa Marriott and see the city. Enjoy time in Historic Ybor City and grab a Cuban cigar, visit local breweries, and enjoy Florida's oldest restaurant (a favorite of ours) The Columbia. Have fun in the sun!
