As one of the attractions in the St. Pete-Clearwater area, Pier 60 is just a 15-minute walk from your room, suite, or vacation rental here at Hotel Cabana. Whether you’re in the mood for a bit of Gulf of Mexico fishing, an evening of live entertainment and outdoor shopping, or front-row seats to some of the finest sunsets on the planet, this postcard-perfect stretch of beach is just the ticket!

Introducing Pier 60

Pier 60 itself is a 1,080-foot-long fishing pier jutting out into the sparkling waters of the Gulf. It’s a pleasant boardwalk simply to stroll, but this is also one of the area’s great places to cast for some of the gamefish Greater Tampa Bay is known for: redfish, spotted trout, silver trout, Spanish mackerel, tarpon, flounder, snook, snapper, and more. The ample lighting makes Pier 60 ideal for night angling, too. You’ll find a well-appointed bait house on site.

The associated Pier 60 park includes covered pavilions, a large playground, and other attractions.

Pier 60 is a perfect spot to enjoy one of Clearwater Beach’s famous sunsets. The “Sunsets at Pier 60” event is a nightly, family-friendly festival anchored by the sundown show and also involving loads of buskers—musicians, stilt-walkers, fire-eaters, jugglers, and more—and arts-and-crafts vendors.

Then there’s Sunset Cinema, serving up FREE outdoor movies at Pier 60 on Friday and Saturday evenings. Upcoming flicks include:

• If you’re looking for a good Valentine’s Day date night during a Hotel Cabana stay, meanwhile, Sunset Cinema’s serving up an appropriate one-two punch, with The Lost Valentineon February 14th and The Notebook on February 15th.
• Beauty & the Beast (February 21^st)
• Ophelia (February 22^nd)
• The Sun is Also a Star (February 28^th)
• Leap Year (February 29^th)

If you’re staying with us with a family, Busch Gardens makes a fantastic daytrip destination, with its famous menagerie of live animals and a world-class lineup of rides and shows.

Introducing Busch Gardens Tampa Bay

Part of the SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment family, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay has been a major attraction in the Sunshine State since 1959.

This sprawling 335-acre facility combines a theme park with one of the biggest zoos in the country and home to more than 200 different species from all over the world. Kangaroos and penguins to two-toed sloths and meerkats, Nile crocodiles and Komodo dragons to ostriches and bald eagles, African lions and Bengal tigers to chimpanzees and orangutans: There’s nothing like seeing birds and beasts from wide-ranging global ecosystems up close and personal, and that’s one of the prime draws of Busch Gardens.

The animal experiences here include a variety of interactive, hands-on encounters and special viewings, plus the unique open-air tour of the park’s Serengeti Plain®, host to free-roaming giraffes, zebras, and other East African wildlife.

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is also for thrill seekers, with its massive roller coasters and other amusement rides. Next year will see a major debut in that department: the opening of Iron Gwazi, set to be the tallest hybrid coaster in North America and the fastest and steepest in the world.

If you’re in the mood for some live entertainment beyond the majesty and antics of the resident fauna, you have a plethora of shows to choose from, including Storytime at Sesame Street – Safari of Fun, Rock a Doo Wop, and Critters Inn Charge, which features rescued cats, dogs, and other furry and feathered buddies.

Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens

You’ve also got one of the top Halloween experiences in Tampa Bay on tap at Busch Gardens: Howl-O-Scream. This collection of haunted houses, scare zones, and ghostly rides awaits your steely nerves through November 2^nd.
