Ballast Point Park

This is a great park, with a splash pad, playground, a few shelters to rent, and ample sitting areas for adults. Plus adjacent is the pier with a nice little shop that you can rent things and get a bite. Look forward to going here again for my daughter to play, and try out fishing sometime.

Nice place to sit...relax..and watch the bay and have great views of downtown Tampa..There is also a small fishing pier there as well. Great little seafood restaurant is also located there....It's called Taste of Boston..

What a difference 25 years make! Back then a small dock and not much else. Now, a very long pier, a playground with water works, bait shop, an indoor/outdoor eatery and a beautiful park with picnic tables. In the past with no bait shop and the small pier I lost interest because fishing was not very good and never came back. Surprise, surprise! I will be back to fish very soon. There are fish cleaning stations all along the pier with running water. Can't wait!

Excellent public park with space aplenty with a beautiful view of sunrise/sunset through the high rise of Tampa bay. Plenty of play space for the kids too. And overall, good environment to relax, morning/evening walk, jogging, exercising etc. plenty of parking space, and even a resturant with delicious seafood menu attached. Perfect for a nice day out!
