Tampa/St. Petersburg Tampa Bay, one of the world's great secluded harbors, is a vast body of water separated from the Gulf of Mexico by a peninsula that stretches from Clearwater on the north to St. Petersburg on the south.
In the center of the huge bay is a peninsula with MacDill Air Force Base at its southern tip. North of that is the city of Tampa, which got its name from a Native American word meaning "sticks of fire," a reference to the region as a campsite. Three routes—Courtney Campbell Causeway, Gandy Bridge and Howard Frankland Bridge—connect the city to St. Petersburg and Clearwater.
