Gay Tampa Bay, St. Petersburg and Clearwater

The Tampa Bay area is Florida's largest metro area with Tampa itself, St.Petersburg and the nearby gulf beach towns. Tampa itself has a thriving nightlife scene in the old town area "Ybor City", but alas, the gay scene is more spread out. You'll find gay bars throughout Tampa and St. Petersburg. While you are here, be sure to visit the gay Suncoast Resort (if you don't stay there) for their T-Dance and just to hang by the pool. Tampa is also an easy drive to great beaches and is only an hour from Orlando.
