It’s not too soon or too late to plan that family summer vacation for 2022. If you can’t get away for long, there are plenty of places within driving distance from the Tampa area. Perhaps some of these ideas could be the way to enjoy those summer months.
Right here in the Tampa Bay area, we have Busch Gardens, Adventure Island, Florida Aquarium, Clearwater Marine Aquarium, ZooTampa, beaches, etc. You know and might already enjoy visiting our most local attractions. If you want to get out of the immediate area, here are some suggestions:
1. Clearwater Beach:
The Pinellas County beaches have lots of options from the bustle of Clearwater to the more serene Indian Rocks Beach.

2. The most obvious, and possibly expensive: Walt Disney World and Universal
Orlando area theme parks at Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando. The tourist mecca of central Florida has seemingly anything you’d like to do. Add in Sea World Orlando and Legoland and there’s something for every age group.
Walt Disney’s dream is still the most visited tourist attraction.

Some history, some technology, all coolness. If you plan the trip right, you might even be lucky enough to witness a rocket launch.
