Yes, a sidewalk is one of Tampa's best attractions. However, this is a special sidewalk. Running along Bayshore Boulevard from MacDill Air Force Base to downtown Tampa, this sidewalk is the longest continuous sidewalk in the US. And, with Hillsborough Bay on one side and some of Tampa's most expensive real estate on the other, the scenery can't be beaten. It's also the location of our most important celebration, the annual Gasparilla parade in late January. As South Tampa's unofficial gym, at all hours of the day, you can find locals walking, jogging, biking, and rollerblading down the long, flat ribbon of pavement.
