One hour:

Unlock one hour in downtown Tampa starting on the 2.4 mile Tampa Riverwalk which links restaurants, parks, and cultural centers like gems on a string. Begin at Ulele for a quick beer or cocktail that may be ordered to go and served in a special cup; this allows guests to drink legally along Riverwalk. Need a ride? Hop on a Pirate Water Taxi which has a total of 15 stops along the Hillsborough River. Or instead, rent your own E-boat for an hour and discover the river yourself. The family-oriented parks have two playgrounds and three splash zones.
