Most people think about museums as places housing thousands of lifeless artifacts from days gone by. Obviously, those people have never been to the Bishop Museum of Science and Nature. Not only is it alive with wonder, but it’s also the home of a real-life manatee rehabilitation center and the largest planetarium on Florida’s west coast—with a new state-of-the-art projection system that brings real-time images of astronomical phenomena.

Hiking Bike Trail

But there's plenty more to do there too, including kayaking, paddle boarding through the mangroves, and exploring the area's three national estuaries. Explore the salt marshes of Robinson Preserve, a 600+ acre coastal preserve with bridges, boardwalks, and a 53-foot-tall observation tower with 360-degree views of the area and lower Tampa Bay. If a break from civilization is what you and your friends are looking for, then look no further than Rye Preserve. Here you and the guys can camp and immerse yourselves in the Florida wilderness. Keep an eye out for gators, raccoons, bobcats, and even whitetail deer. No matter which preserve you choose, each is unique as the last, providing new views and natural beauty to explore.
