A private liberal arts college on 188 acres of waterfront along Tampa Bay in St. Petersburg, known for its beach-school setting and marine research programs.

The Sunshine Skyway Bridge, a 5.5-mile cable-stayed span rising 190 feet over Tampa Bay, connecting St. Petersburg to Manatee County and instantly recognizable by its bright yellow cables.

A modern 65-foot-tall span along the Pinellas Bayway, providing the only vehicle access to Tierra Verde and Fort De Soto Park at Mullet Key.

St. Pete Pier
A 26-acre waterfront district extending into Tampa Bay from downtown St. Petersburg, opened in 2020. It has restaurants, a marketplace, public art, a fishing deck, and the Tampa Bay Watch Discovery Center.

Tropicana Field
The domed home of the Tampa Bay Rays (MLB), located at 1 Tropicana Drive. Opened in 1990 as the Florida Suncoast Dome, it's MLB's only nonretractable domed stadium and is known for the 10,000-gallon Rays Touch Tank behind the outfield wall.
