Austin and the team at Bayshore Nightscapes absolutely knocked it out of the park! We recently had landscape lighting installed around our home, including the front landscaping and driveway, and the results exceeded our expectations. Austin was fantastic to work with from start to finish. He really knows his stuff, has a great eye for detail, and helped bring our vision to life. The lighting completely transformed the look of our home at night. Everything looks clean, elegant, and professionally done without being overdone. You can tell Austin takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about making sure his customers are happy. Couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you’re considering landscape lighting in the Tampa Bay area, I highly recommend Austin and Bayshore Nightscapes. Five stars all around!
Proudly serving Bayside West, FL
Waterfront landscape lighting for Bayside West — designed for open bay exposure, sunset views, and salt air.
Outdoor lighting in Bayside West
Bayside West occupies a quiet stretch of the Interbay peninsula facing Old Tampa Bay, where west-facing lots catch the sunset and the water is never more than a block away. Homes here range from remodeled mid-century ranches to new coastal builds on raised foundations, and both benefit from the same approach: landscape lighting that emphasizes horizontal lines, keeps glare off the water, and makes the yard usable long after the sun drops behind the bay.
Open bay exposure is demanding. We specify solid brass and copper fixtures rated for direct coastal conditions, seal every connection, and mount transformers where wind-driven rain cannot reach them. For raised and elevated homes we hide fixtures under stair treads and deck edges so the pathway lighting disappears into the architecture, and we use warm outdoor living lighting on docks and waterside patios to extend the evening.

Our process
Common questions
How do you protect fixtures from constant salt spray?
With material choice, not coatings. Solid brass and copper hold up in direct coastal exposure where aluminum and painted steel fail within a few seasons. We pair them with sealed silicone-filled connectors and stainless hardware, all covered by a 20-year fixture warranty.
Can you light a dock, seawall, or boat lift?
Yes. We handle dock approaches, piling accents, seawall grazing, and step lighting down to the water, all on low-voltage circuits designed for wet locations.
Will the lighting interfere with the sunset view?
No — that is the whole point of the design. Fixtures stay low and shielded, aimed at the house and landscape rather than out over the water, so the western view stays completely clear.
What does a Bayside West project typically cost?
Most waterfront systems here run $3,500 to $10,000 depending on lot size and how much of the water frontage you want lit. We quote a fixed price after a free evening walkthrough.
