The top floor of The Pier combines both the tropical dining of Cha Cha Coconuts with a huge observation deck, giving the visitor a truly unique observation point on Tampa Bay. The Pier features plenty of parking, complete with trolley service linking the Pier to the rest of downtown. No admission fee charged except for the aquarium which has a donation of $2.00, however, on Sundays there is no admission charge.

Treasure Island Reef
|
N. 27 44 30.0 W. 82 52 51.0
Treasure Island, FL
T.I. was the first to receive the large profile pyramid reefs. Accounts of large grouper, snapper, hogfish, snook and big bull redfish are not uncommon. These pyramid structures can be found 1000 feet south of the buoy. From that spot run approximately 200 feet due north to run over ?THE WALL?. This is a group of 35-40 foot long pilings stacked to resemble a wall. From the buoy, head 900 feet north. From there, switch on your recorder and head due east or west. To the west you will find two pyramids and to the east you will find three.
