Tampa’s Riverwalk, highlighted in Travel + Leisure’s city guides, connects families to outdoor art installations, playgrounds, and local eateries along the Hillsborough River. Water Works Park, just off the Riverwalk, features splash zones, picnic areas, and frequent community events. This independently managed space is a favorite gathering spot and offers a taste of local life, whether you rent bikes, take a water taxi, or simply enjoy the lively river views.

This playground is located near the city center and not far from the well-known Armatour Works with a wonderful view of the river and a walking area. We visited this place with friends for the first time and we really liked it. The entrance to the site is through a gate, and the playground is fenced. On the territory of the site, there are gazebos, toilets, a playground with mountains, various sports equipment, and an area with water fountains that can perfectly cool your child. The territory is clean and well-groomed, and there are benches. I recommend visiting with children, and then you can walk nearby in wonderful locations.

Great place for kids, adults and dogs. Playground for kids and they walk and run through various waters, a large open area to run , jog or walk your dogs, and clean, well kept bathrooms. There are eateries nearby and the whole place is edged by the beautiful river. There are tile signs that explain the life forces under water. Beautiful, welcoming area.

Waterworks Park is a great location right on the water in Tampa. I visited in June and would love to come back when the weather is cooler. Take a stroll along the Riverwalk or have your children enjoy the splash pad. The grounds are clean and well kept. There are clean restrooms available. Parking was available within walking distance.

This park is ghetto af. The playground area is in desperate need of repair (see pic below). Lot of riff raff here, messy, lots of trash and rap music with no regards to others. Don’t waste your time here, trust me.

The water area for kids is great. It has spouts of water coming up and a couple of obstacles for them to run around. There are g great restaurants and sitting areas around the park as well. Prices vary for eating and drinks. Pet friendly.
