From Clearwater to Key West: Explore Florida with TPA Van Rentals

/ TPA Van Rentals, Transportation / By

Discover Florida’s Best Destinations Together

Florida isn’t just a state—it’s a journey. With sun-soaked beaches, thrilling attractions, cultural landmarks, and scenic drives, the Sunshine State is built for road trips. And the best way to explore it all? Together.

Whether you’re traveling with family, a church group, a sports team, or your closest friends, TPA Van Rentals makes it easy to load everyone into one spacious vehicle and hit the road. From Clearwater’s powdery beaches to the island vibes of Key West, your Florida adventure begins at Tampa International Airport.

Here’s how renting a 12- or 15-passenger van can transform your trip into something unforgettable.

Start Your Florida Adventure Right from TPA Airport

Most road trips begin with a headache—figuring out transportation after a flight. Not in Tampa. With TPA Van Rentals, your van is ready as soon as you arrive at Tampa International Airport.

Instead of waiting for multiple rideshares, splitting the group into smaller cars, or hauling luggage from one bus to another, everyone piles into one vehicle and you’re on your way. This setup works perfectly for:

  • Family vacations where kids, strollers, and luggage all need extra space.
  • Sports teams traveling for tournaments in Orlando, Sarasota, or Miami.
  • Wedding groups shuttling guests from the airport to the venue.
  • Corporate retreats starting in Tampa and stretching across the state.

Your Florida road trip starts smoother when you begin with the right ride.

Beaches Close to Tampa: Clearwater, St. Pete, and Treasure Island

Florida’s west coast is a beach lover’s paradise. Just a short drive from Tampa, you’ll find some of the most famous stretches of sand in the country. With a TPA van rental, you can hop from one beach town to the next in a single day.

  • Clearwater Beach: Known for its soft white sand, vibrant boardwalk, and family-friendly atmosphere.
  • St. Pete Beach: Popular for sunset views and lively bars.
  • Treasure Island: Laid-back vibes, perfect for picnics and quiet beach days.

Group travel makes these destinations even more fun. Imagine pulling up with enough space for beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and maybe even a surfboard or two. No cramming gear into tiny trunks or paying extra baggage fees—your van handles it all.

Family-Friendly Road Trips: Orlando Theme Parks and Attractions

No Florida trip is complete without a stop in Orlando. Just 1.5 hours from Tampa, Orlando is home to some of the world’s best attractions:

  • Walt Disney World: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios.
  • Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure: Home to Harry Potter and Marvel favorites.
  • SeaWorld Orlando: Marine life meets roller coasters.

For families and school groups, traveling together in one van means fewer worries about kids getting lost or separated. Plus, all your souvenirs (yes, even that oversized Mickey balloon) fit comfortably in the back.

Discover Sarasota, Naples, and Florida’s West Coast Gems

Head south from Tampa and you’ll find cultural and natural treasures across Florida’s Gulf Coast. Sarasota is just an hour away, known for Siesta Key Beach and the Ringling Museum. Continue on to Naples, where upscale dining meets stunning coastal views.

Other gems along this route include:

  • Fort Myers: Famous for its fishing and boating.
  • Sanibel Island: Perfect for seashell hunting.
  • Marco Island: A quiet getaway with luxury resorts.

Renting a van gives your group the flexibility to hop from city to city without juggling multiple rentals. You’ll enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

Heading South: Miami Vibes and Key West Road Adventures

The ultimate Florida road trip stretches from Tampa to the southern tip of the state. The drive to Miami takes about four hours, while Key West adds another three on the scenic Overseas Highway—a bucket-list road for any traveler.

  • Miami: Nightlife, culture, food, and world-class shopping.
  • Key Largo: Known for diving and snorkeling.
  • Islamorada: A fishing paradise.
  • Key West: Colorful streets, ocean sunsets, and a laid-back island lifestyle.

With unlimited mileage options at TPA Van Rentals, you can take the long drive south without worrying about hidden fees. It’s freedom, Florida style.

Why Large Vans Are the Best Choice for Florida Exploration

If you’re still deciding between multiple cars, buses, or a van, here’s why vans win:

  • Togetherness: Everyone arrives and leaves at the same time.
  • Affordability: One rental, one gas bill, one parking fee.
  • Convenience: No coordinating multiple rideshares.
  • Flexibility: Stop when you want, where you want.

Our vans are built for Florida road trips—spacious seating, strong AC, and cargo space for luggage, coolers, or beach gear. It’s everything you need in one vehicle.
