2. Walk the Riverwalk

Stroll along the Tampa Riverwalk for a great way to relax and to see the city in a fun way.

It's really one of the most fun free things to do in Tampa, because the Riverwalk leads you through parks, over water, and through many other parts of the city.

6. Fourth Friday Tampa

Every fourth Friday of the month, you can do a lot of free things in Tampa during Fourth Friday Tampa.

You will find here live local music and special food and drink deals from local restaurants.

Furthermore, you get free admission to many of Tampa's museums, theatres, and other cultural venues.

The only thing you need is a free wristband that you can get from any of the participating cultural venues! Definitely one of the most fun free things to do in Tampa!

7. Head to the beach

If you like going to the beach, then go to Ben T. Davis Beach while you are in Tampa.

It is a great beach where you can go to relax on the white sand.

Furthermore, it just looks very beautiful. Therefore, I would really recommend going here!
