Typical weather this time of year is 75 during the day with a low in the mid 50’s. That should bring some of you from the north running with bathing suits in hand!!

Tampa is very close to many of Florida’s best attractions, Busch Gardens is just a few minutes down the road from the host hotel, and Disney World, Sea World and Universal are less than an hour away!
