This review is for those military members who may want to PCS to the bay area.
Of all the CONUS AF bases, in my opinion, this is one of the best! Located in South Tampa, it’s centrally located to lots of shopping, restaurants, activities, parks, museums, 30ish minutes from the ocean, and only 1.5 hours from Disney.
The base itself has a nice beach area in the Bay, with a pavilion and lots of palm trees (for shade). The base is nice and clean, with most of the buildings new or newly renovated. There is a nice marina hosting tons of beach/​water activities. The BX is large for such a small base. The commissary is typical of an AF base.
If you decide to live on base, base housing is spectacular. Best base housing I’ve ever seen. The base is small, so living on base may not be an option.
Living off base is not a problem. There are many options within a short drive to base. If you ask me, the ocean is what makes this place so appealing, so the closer to the beach, the better (to each their own). A little tip, research the area well before deciding to commit; there are some bad areas.
In summary, if you like the beach, city life, and nice weather, this may be a good pick for the Olé dream sheet.

This by far is the best Air Base I have ever visited. Very friendly and inviting. Had no ease coming into the base and coming out.
Had a great tour around the base. Had a good experience shopping in the base too for a fraction of the cost compared to other retail stores provided within the vicinity.
The Pier is definitely a must visit to go to. It’s not open to the public, but if you know anybody. It’s definitely a must see, preferably on a clear sunny day where the ocean becomes clear where you can see the marine life. The Great marine life under neath the Pier is amazing, you get to see some sharks, the small ones not the Jaw like shark, some blue fins, and several other school of fishes… And definitely you can’t fish on restricted air space. Or else you’ll go to prison for endangering the wild life. Namm sayinn.
