Itinerary

  • The largest port in all of Florida is on your left as you make your way to the Tampa Riverwalk.

  • If you’re looking for family fun, music or good food, Sparkman Wharf will not disappoint!

  • THE RIVER WALL. The medley comes together to create an abstract design that, at a distant glance, is intended to give the impression of actually being a river.

  • Cotanchobee … where the river meets the big land!

  • This memorial park stands in quiet and humble recognition of those brave souls who have given their lives in the name of freedom, safety and community service.

  • Tampa Riverwalk

    HISTORIC MONUMENT TRAIL. As you continue walking along the riverwalk trail, you’re going to see some pretty spectacular marble and bronze statues scattered along the way.

  • We don’t really need to point this one out.. It's pretty obvious! Welcome to Amalie Arena, home to over 670,000 square feet of excitement!

  • The Sail Pavilion on the Riverwalk

    An incredibly unique 360-degree open-air, waterfront bar! A beautiful place to take a break, sit for a moment and simply enjoy all the excitement and action that’s taking place along the Riverwalk!

  • What if instead of going for a swim, paddling your canoe or kayak or hopping on a boat, you went for a bike ride down the river instead? We'll tell you all about it and you can decide!

  • Not only is the building itself very impressive, but as you can probably see, the location is pretty fantastic as well offering guests a beautiful walk and lot’s of things to do.

  • This park is dedicated to the contributions the university, better known as USF, makes to the city of Tampa Bay. We'll tell you a bit about it and the university itself.

  • There’s no denying, as we take in the spectacular skyline of downtown Tampa Bay, that this Riverwalk is breathtaking. But, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, Tampa’s natural beauty is pretty breathtaking, too!

  • This park was established to honour MacDill Air Force Base’s contributions to Tampa. It may seem pretty small, but its intention is big! We'll tell you why.

  • HILLSBOROUGH RIVER....the snaking, twisting, curvy waterway we’ve been walking alongside flows through Florida from Green Swamp right into Tampa Bay.

  • Although designed to resemble a lighthouse, it’s become affectionately known throughout Tampa as.... we'll tell you!

  • The 4.5 acre garden originally showcased 5 separate pools, each with an island & palm tree.. how idyllic! Thanks to the “Friends of Kiley Gardens”, as of 2022, it’s being worked on to bring it more in line with the original vision.

  • The University of Tamps really is quite an interesting place with a very interesting history! If you want to explore the campus, you can cross the river at either of the bridges and take a look.

  • Ghosts of Plant Hall. Spooky footsteps echoing up and down vacant corridors, spectres gliding seamlessly through walls, sightings of the shadowy figure of a distinguished gentleman in a brown suit, the stories of hauntings are plenty!

  • Stretching out to greet the Hillsborough River, like much of the Riverwalk, it uses Tampa’s breath-taking skyline as a dramatic backdrop to family fun and festivities.

  • Ybor, in historic downtown Tampa, just across the river from here, was established pretty much entirely by cigar manufacturers. We'll tell you about the Cuban influence still seen in this area today.

  • Welcome to the latest addition to the Tampa River Walk as of 2022. Hey if it’s a bit hot out, you can always head over to that giant yellow bucket full of water ... that should keep you refreshed and cool!

  • Take a step back in time to 1910, when streetcars were a familiar sight on Tampa streets. Perhaps you can imagine a little of the community’s excitement as this building first opened its doors. We'll give you just a bit of it's history and evolution to today.
