Cypress Point Park

Here at the Westshore Grand, we pride ourselves on offering our guests a Tampa Bay location ideal for both business and play.

And one of the best nearby spots for that play end of the spectrum is certainly Cypress Point Park, a lovely waterfront greenspace oasis just a few miles from our Tribute Portfolio hotel.

Down by the Bay: Cypress Point Park

Set on a little peninsula jutting into Old Tampa Bay, Cypress Point Park has a tranquil feel to it. Sprawling lawns, groves of cabbage palms, grassy dunes, a fluffy beach edged against the shimmering estuary: This is a beautiful place to wile away a few hours, to say the least.

Walking paths wind around the grounds, which also come stocked with plentiful picnic pavilions, picnic tables, and benches. There’s a canoe launch as well for leisurely paddling forays out on Old Tampa Bay. A bayside lunch, an amble on the nature trail, a little time out on the water—sounds like the recipe for the perfect Gulf Coast afternoon!

Cypress Point Sunsets

And word to the wise: Cypress Point Park is one of the best places in the area to catch one of our glorious Tampa Bay sunsets for yourself. Follow up the spectacular show on the shore with dinner at our Shula’s Steak House or a cocktail at the No Name Lounge.

(If the sands of Cypress Point Park have you eager for more, meanwhile, check out our roundup of greater Tampa’s best beaches, from Fort De Soto to Indian Rocks. You’ve got endless opportunities for sunbathing, swimming, fishing, and all-around beachgoing with a home base of the Westshore Grand.)
