Default Re: GOING TO THE BEACH
We just went to Ft. Desota last weekend and it was great. Not near as many people as we have seen before. Not sure why, but the beach was wonderful and Ft. Desota park is very big.
Just a minor correction on the directions above. Yes you do go South on I-75, but just as you get near Tampa take the I-275 branch to the right. I-75 keeps heading South towards Sarasota and I-275 goes through Tampa. You still take the last exit before the Sunshine Skyway after you get through downtown Tampa and head West. Lots of signs to the park.
