Destination guide

See the light at Apollo Beach

It's no coincidence this place was named for the Greek god of sun and light _ you'll find plenty of both in Apollo Beach. Beside Tampa Bay on Florida's Gulf Coast, Apollo Beach is a laid-back coastal town known for its sandy beaches, wildlife reserves, and waterfront residential neighborhoods. Apollo Beach boasts a number of waterfront parks and nature preserves, where you can enjoy year-round boating, fishing, and sunbathing. Your Apollo Beach vacation rental will put you close to local landmarks like the Manatee Viewing Center, the Apollo Beach Golf Club, and the Apollo Beach Nature Preserve.

Under the sea in Apollo Beach

If you're in Apollo Beach during the winter months, the Manatee Viewing Center is always worth a visit. Part of Tampa Electric's Big Bend Power Station, the warm-water channel created by the energy plant attracts the animals during the colder seasons, and you'll find a sturdy boardwalk and observation tower where you can survey the surrounding estuary and wetlands. A short drive away, The Florida Aquarium boasts countless species of sea life and plenty of interactive exhibits. Scuba-certified visitors can even swim with the sharks, eels, and sea turtles in the aquarium's coral reef.
