There is also meter parking on the street. There is construction going on around the park on the outskirts of it The landscaping here is beautiful. Walking path, park, picnic tables, dog friendly lots of green space. They also have the Market Marie here and we recently came for the July 4 fireworks and also when the big huge inflatable rubber ducky came. So many levels of views here with the water and marina in the background. Bay sound is here too where they have concerts. It's a great place and the best place in downtown Clearwater.

A beautiful park that was recently renovated, in the heart of downtown Tampa. They have started…read morehosting many events lately and one of the most recent ones has been the "momma duck" art exhibit and her kid "Timmy". The park itself is very clean and nicely laid out with a cool splash pad for children to play in as well as a nice little park with stuff to climb and slide down and around on. I like that the park had some really clean bathrooms and the stalls didn't have any gaps when I closed the door. Being able to walk around this park and see some beautiful views of the water was something that was very cool because it is right off the water! No matter where I was walking there was something to see and enjoy. There was also a ton of seating around the park so I didn't have to sit on the floor or sit in the way of anyone. I also love that there are both stairs and ramps so that everyone is able to enjoy this park!

They have a park right next door and sometimes in the early evening, there is a Food Truck with both Food and Ice Cream. It's free, clean and always a great time. There is plenty of parking available and a bathroom nearby. I highly recommend spending a few hours here.

One of the best splash pads in the area. Lots of seating for parents (and some shaded spots),…read morepretty good size splash pad, and has a playground next door. It is well maintained. All fenced in so you don't have to worry about your kiddos running off. It can get pretty busy on days where school is out. My only complaint is that sometimes there are older kids (10 or so) who play aggressively and will take out the toddlers or younger kiddos.

Super cool area. Went here with my daughter for a karate tournament and the place was awesome. Only…read morething that was terrible is the vending machines. They kept getting stuck and it robbed me of like $3 lol.

Came to Highland rec center for the aquatic area for my daughter's birthday. We signed up for the…read moreafternoon swim that was two hours long. Now there is a lot of amenities here at the aquatic center but the two big slides in the corner are little rocky. We decided to go down the waterslides when we first got there and noticed that both have flaws. There are wasp nests underneath the slides so you do see tons of wasp flying around. The swirl slide we took moves really slow so you have to push yourself at some point to keep moving forward down the slide. People were coming down quickly after you would get off the slides they got kind of close to landing in the water by us. The straight down slide you catch air midway, especially for a little kids you kinda stopped, touching the slide at one point. Now for the smaller kid area it was perfect for my five year old. They had little slides over there and even a medium kid slide as soon as you walk up nice splash pad a lot more slow pace and relaxing. they do have lifejackets there if needed for children. They also have a café where they serve Domino's Pizza and other snacks and drink options which we did get some Gatorade's and a whole Domino's Pizza, and for the price it wasn't bad.

This shop is located on Pier 60. They sell souvenirs and snacks. You can also rent rods here…read more I thought the prices on the souvenirs were fair. Baseball hats were priced at $8.95, which is pretty good in my opinion. Simple Clearwater Beach t-shirts were also the same price, anytime I can buy a tee for under $10 it's a decent deal. They had other seashell related souvenirs. Kids beach toys are also for sale. The snack section was small, but they do have a nice amount of drinks, which is handy for those hot beach days. Also for sale were postcards, magnets and stickers. Ice is also for sale!

This area had definitely blossomed over the years. Used to come here when dating my husband years…read moreago when It wasn't so pretty and attractive. Parking is convenient but limited availability during peak beach season. There are vendors that are out on the pier during certain times to sell their products. Slot of beach type items. They have a water slide and bungee jump available fir the kids and/or big kids lol. Beach is clean and plenty of restaurants to choose from along the beach should you get hungry. Restrooms could still use a facelift as well as the ice cream shop that's right on the pier.

One of my favorite parts is walking the pier and spotting manatees swimming below, along with plenty of fish in the water. If you enjoy wildlife and sightseeing, you'll love it. There are also food options nearby if you want to grab a bite. The beach has something for everyone. Families relax under the bridge for shade, while others soak up the sun, splash in the water, or enjoy the soft sand. It's a lively, family-friendly beach with a fun atmosphere. There is a small fee if you want to walk all the way to the end of the pier 60, but you can walk about three-quarters of the way for free and along the way, there are benches where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the beautiful views.

Let me just say that this place was a lifesaver for us one day. We had a toddler meltdown on our…read morehands and this park made everything go back to rainbows and butterflies. It's a small park that is literally walking distance to the beach, a few restaurants, a gas station, fire department and several hotels. It has a small playground and plenty of room for kiddos to get out some extra energy (or frustration). The park was clean and well kept so I'm not sure why more people haven't reviewed this place. Maybe because the beach is more fun? I don't know...but I think it was great and like I said - that day it was our saving grace so I'm thankful it was there!
