Tampa Travel FAQs

Yes, and I-4 is generally the easiest route from Tampa to Orlando. The drive typically takes around an hour and a half. However, your trip may be longer if you are traveling to a heavy tourist destination, such as a theme park, or if you’re traveling during rush hour. 

Tampa rush hour is from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM and from 3:30 PM to 7:30 PM. Big events may increase traffic at other times, as well. If you must drive during these times, you’ll reduce your travel times by avoiding popular I-275 exits and Hillsborough Avenue.

The most direct route from Tampa to Clearwater—about 23 miles along the Courtney Campbell Causeway—usually takes 45 minutes or less. If you’re flying into the area, you can pick up your Budget rental at the St. Petersburg/Clearwater Airport (PIE) rental counter outside the baggage claim area. 

Yes, there are several beaches in Tampa, including Ben T Davis Beach and Davis Islands Beach. Alternatively, Tampa is not far from many other popular beaches in nearby towns, including Clearwater Beach, Fort De Soto Park, Archibald Beach Park, and Sand Key Park. Get your rental car ready—these beaches are worth the drive! 

The Tampa time zone is Eastern Standard Time (EST). If you’re traveling from another U.S. location, it’s a one to three-hour time adjustment, depending on the region you are traveling from. EST is one hour ahead of Central Standard Time (CST), two hours ahead of Mountain Standard Time (MST), and three hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time (PST).
