Tampa Bay

Sup? Ive asked a similar question before but hadnt taken tampa bay into consideration..so what's it like? From what Ive read Id say its a relatively big city with nice beaches and during winter and spring the weather is really great. So maybe this might even be a better choice than San Diego, as in S.D. you cant really go to the beach before april if youre lucky i guess...

Anyways, Im just wondering what that city is like. Maybe someone lives there or has been there before.

Been through there and planning on going again sometime this year or next...

It's a nice, port city with a lot of things to do (check out Ybor City) and annual events.

There are certain spots that if you're not careful, when you turn down one road and you'd swear you turned from suburb to ghetto, just like that.

As for Ybor City, it's Tampa's version of Bourbon Str. in New Orleans and there is a ton of things to do. http://www.ybortimes.com/what-is-ybor.cfm

You'll run into a lot of filipino's and latin/spanish/cuban people there, but if you love the women, it's all good.

Hard question to answer, cuz it is subjective to everybody's personal opinion. i have friends who go to San Diego every summer and love it, but haven't been to Tampa, so couldn't compare it very fairly. I have been to Tampa, but years ago when I was little, and I don't remember much. You're bound to find something enjoyable to do there. Its a busy place.(not to mention the Buccaneers are from there, my favorite football team).

hmm..actually I guess Id go for San Diego, but apparently the weather in S.D. isn't as good as I've always thought. I mean if I was living there it'd probably be great, but if I wanna go there in spring (or maybe even in winter) to get some sun and go to the beaches at a time of the year when the weather is lousy in germany, San Diego wouldnt probably be a good choice. Right now in march and in april the temperatures dont seem to be high enough to go to the beach and stuff...but well I still have time to make up my mind
