Note: If the Buccaneers don't have a football game scheduled on the weekend you visit, you can substitute another outing or sporting event on Day 2.
Evening 1
Start your first evening with a Seafood Buffet at Sunset Grill at Little Harbor. It's hard to imagine a more delightful dining experience.
Day 1
Morning
Take a Canoe Escape -- Downstream Paddling. Explore the Hillsborough River through a 16,000-acre wilderness park and discover the natural Florida. See birds, turtles, gators on a two-hour to full-day downstream paddling adventure with family, friends or business associates.
After a day on the river, enjoy Skipper’s Black Bean Gator Chili or another lunch entree at Skippers SmokeHouse and Oyster Bar. This is where the locals go and get a feel of Old Florida. The menu at this cracker-style, ramshackle fish shack and concert venue focuses heavily on Florida seafood specialties sprinkled with a dash of Louisiana and the Caribbean flavors.
Afternoon
Get some fresh air by mountain biking at Lettuce Lake Park. Activities center around the nature areas and boardwalk leading to an observation tower on the Hillsborough River. Bicycle and exercise trails meander through this 240-acre park.
Evening
Relax this evening with dinner and drinks at Sunset Lounge and Tiki Bar at Little Harbor. Sunsets Grill & Lounge is the perfect place to relax and unwind with a light meal and a cold drink after your day’s activities on land or sea. Multiple televisions for all your favorite sporting events, dart boards and the fabulous view of Tampa Bay provide the perfect backdrop for watching your fellow boaters out on the water.
Day 2
Morning
Start off Game Day with Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tailgating Party.
Afternoon
The Buccaneers game kicks off in the afternoon. Tampa Bay’s NFL football team, the 2002 Super Bowl Champions, play their home games in Raymond James Stadium, which FOX Sports has recently named the NFL's best stadium to attend a game.
Evening
After an exciting game, head over to Splitsville to enjoy bowling, billiards, and dinner lounge featuring gourmet appetizers, sushi, and classic retro entrees. Great atmosphere to watch the remainder of Sunday's NFL lineup while dining on great food and pursuing that ever so elusive 300 perfect game!
