Aripeka Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Aripeka is a small community located in Pasco County along Florida’s “Nature Coast,” or the central Gulf Coast Region of Florida. The town of Aripeka is considered part of the Tampa Bay-Saint Petersburg metro area. Called a “recreational paradise,” Pasco County offers pursuits for every age and activity level. The beautiful blue-green waters of the Gulf and the silky white sand beaches offer an abundance of choices for fun, such as swimming, sunning, shelling, snorkeling and scuba diving, sailing, boating and water skiing and jet skiing. In addition, other numerable waterways around Aripeka are ideal for boating, canoeing and fresh water fishing. West Pasco County also boasts many well-maintained parks that provide swimming pools and jogging, hiking and cycling trails. Sims Park in nearby New Port Richey is the site of a Super Playground, walkways along the river, pavilions and an outdoor stage. U.S. Highway 19 runs through Pasco County, making Aripeka convenient for trips to Walt Disney World, Busch Gardens, Sea World and Universal Studios.

Aripeka Weather & Climate

The Central West Coast just northwest of Tampa Bay, enjoys a semi tropical climate with warm Gulf breezes and plenty of sunshine - 361 days of sun per year. Although thunderstorms are frequent in summertime, they are short in duration and the sun quickly reappears behind the clouds. However, hot temperatures, along with the rain and the Gulf of Mexico help contribute to high humidity levels during this time, as well. June through September receives the most rain, with the rest of the year being pretty dry by comparison. Many believe the most pleasant weather is found during the winter months between November and March when the humidity becomes more bearable and winds from the Bay and Gulf help moderate the temperatures.
