Y'bor is good for the nightlife. Feels like 2 square miles of bars & clubs & restaraunts. Be aware that they do have some crime problems (car break-ins, purse snatchers, pick-pockets etc) there.
Busch Gardens is just about it for the daytime/family stuff in Tampa.

But, as Krom said, the best thing is that Orlando (Disney & Universal) is only 45 minutes away. I think either of them are better parks than B-G. But then again, I've never forked out the dough to go on the Safari that B-G offers... that'd be something kind of cool & different to try.
