Description

E.G. Simmons Regional Park, just north of Ruskin on Tampa Bay, has been a favorite since the 1960s. The park features 258 acres of mangroves and open land, plus a 200-acre bird and wildlife sanctuary where visitors can spot endangered species like the Roseate Spoonbill and Bald Eagle. Enjoy a walk along the 700-foot beach, play volleyball, fish, or kayak along scenic waterways. The park offers two playgrounds, accessible parking, RV parking, restrooms, showers, picnic areas, camping, a boat ramp, and pet-friendly areas, making it perfect for a family outing or outdoor adventure.
