Review from Victoria A.
Tampa, FL
This spot is one of my favorites I am not sure if it is because I caught my first 3 fish here or its because the set up and atmosphere is so nice and relaxing.
In on area you have the park for the kids, then there is a spot to sit and watch the water, there is a nice well built long pier that we fish on and then there is this little nice spot that you could either buy bait or sit and grab a bite.
I do like this spot and this will be a frequent place to come fish or just chill. -
Review from Sam Q.
Ballast Point Park, located just 1/2 mile from the south end of Bayshore Boulevard Linear Park, is truly one of Tampa's hidden gems. Not only is it home to Taste of Boston, a restaurant with the best deep fryer in Tampa, but it also has some of the most amazing views of downtown Tampa from across the bay. It is a very small park with a playground, a dock (so you can come by boat) and a long pier for walking and fishing. Taste of Boston and a bait shop are the only two stores, and they have public restrooms. There is a small parking area which gets packed at lunch, and there is another parking area across the street for Bayshore Boulevard joggers.
I've posted some pictures I took while sitting down at one of the tables of Taste of Boston. This is definitely going into my Tampa Things to Do list. Eating with this kind of view is truly one of the reasons I call Tampa home. -

Great place to relax and fish great for the kids on a nice Sunny day. Nice area for BBQing and kid parties.
