Conveniently located in Rockpoint, Ben T. Davis Beach is filled with the kind of sugary white sands that wouldn't look out of place on a Caribbean island. It's a beautiful little beach and a great place for families to come for a full day of fun in the sun. Pack a picnic and enjoy it at one of the beach's many sheltered picnic areas or simply head into town when you get hungry and dine at one of the many local Tampa eateries.
Pro tip: Visit at weekends if you're looking for a lively vibe or check out Ben T. Davis Beach in the middle of the week for something calmer and quieter.
Sunset photo opportunity: This is one of the best Apollo Beach beaches to watch the sun go down in the evenings as well.
