Julian B. Lane Riverfront Park

beautiful, clean, and peaceful place to spend time with family. There are no slides, but kids absolutely love the splash pad with fountains and the big tipping bucket that pours water over them — so much fun! The whole area feels fresh and safe, with lots of open space to run and play. The view of the river and the city skyline across the water is simply stunning, especially at sunset. One of the most unique and cool things is watching the rowing teams train in their long boats on the river — it’s really impressive! There are also picnic tables, shaded areas, and plenty of grass to relax. Everything is well maintained, and the vibe is friendly and chill. Great spot for a family outing or just a quiet walk by the river. Highly recommend!

We loved the riverfront park, a lot to do in the area ( basketball, tennis, pickleball, running, exercising equipment) we loved the splash pad and the park, after playing about we walked the riverside and it was very peaceful and calming. We watched a few boats pass us by very friendly folks aboard, we all loved seeing all the art work. Beautiful environment !! We will be returning soon!!!

We discovered this park while looking for a place to play tennis. The courts are well maintained, with shade and water fountains, we really enjoyed playing there. The park itself is quite big, there are soccer and basketball fields, also a playground with a splash pad, and many beautiful spots for sitting. Paring is free.

I take my pup to Julian B Lane dog park several times a week. It's typically very clean. There are some visitors who are on their phones and don't pick up their dog's waste, but you will always have that, I guess. This place is especially nice in hot weather because the dogs can cool off in the sprinklers. Love this park.

This is the best and most beautiful park in Tampa Florida. So clean and so much space. The scenery is amazing. Having a picnic or running around the park is so much fun.

We visited the park for Gasparilla Art Festival 2025. We were amazed by the various art works. The park has a playing area for kids, tennis courts, a walking path and a nice Hillsborough river view. It's on the opposite side of Tampa river walk.

This 25 acres of greenery and active sports venues is a refreshing space in the busy city. The basketball courts include shaded even has shaded spectator bleachers. The park also offers pickleball, softball, tennis and adult and children's leagues. The boathouse provides storage for dragon boats used for practices for the dragon boat races. There are many spaces here for a bring-your-own-picnic-or-meal with no food sales except during special events. Have a picnic. On your blanket in the many green spaces, covered table area, or the veranda of the event center with a beautiful Riverview and the sights of University of Tampa's iconic minarets. Accessible mens and women's restrooms With 2 grab bars and more than 5ftx 5ft space and diaper changer Great free parking lots with accessible van parking. Park is very accessible with stylish ramps to manage the variations in terrain. A delightful park!

Beautiful park, great location. We were there for the Gasparilla Arts Festival.
