Tampa, on the other hand, offers all the amenities of the big city with easy access to the shores. Thanks to its tropical weather, world-class beaches, hopping nightlife, professional sports and cultural reputation, Tampa and its Bay-area sisters, St. Petersburg and Clearwater, make up a sprawling and fast-growing urban center. For the better part of the year, Tampa's sun rises and sets around its aquatic activities. The beaches, the water, the fishing and the beach bars keep the Bay area's residents company. And while Clearwater beach draws crowds of visitors, locals are often content on the sands of the more serene Honeymoon Island, Sunset Beach or Pass-a-Grille. Downtown St. Petersburg provides relief from the heat with a collection of museums and art galleries including the Museum of Fine Arts and the Dali Museum. Nature lovers, on the other hand, find solace and splendor in the greenery and wildlife of Hillsborough River State Park. For those with an affinity for adult beverages and a happening social scene, the energy of Ybor City in Tampa and the cultured establishments of Soho aren't to be missed. On the opposite spectrum (and the opposite side of the Bay), St. Petersburg and Clearwater foster a more relaxed atmosphere at their bohemian-style beach bars.
