Watch The Sunset On The Beach
It’s no secret that Tampa Bay has some gorgeous sunsets. What a way to set the mood to at the beginning or end of your Valentine’s date. Head to the Courtney Campbell or Dunedin Causeway if you want free views of Tampa Bay’s amazing sunsets.

Have A Picnic In A Park
Alright, so this one isn’t totally free, but it’s still cost-effective. The only thing you’ll need to buy is some drinks/snacks! Our favorite picnic spot is Vinoy Park in St. Pete, or you can head over to Curtis Hixon in Downtown Tampa!
