That isnt good geography thats modern preference.
Good Geography is New York Harbor or San Francisco Bay. Before modern times Tampa would have been a swamp filled with malaria it has a decent bay but requires a lot of work for it to handle ships of size. Cities that were large and important going back a few centuries. Those are the ones with good geography.
There a is a reason it didn't really grow until modern times like many cities in Florida, while places like Mobile and New Orleans did.
