Cotanchobee Fort Brooke Park

Cotanchobee Fort Brooke Park is a 4.5-acre waterfront park located in downtown Tampa, Florida, dedicated to commemorating the city's history and Indigenous peoples. The park includes Heroes Park and is situated between the Tampa Bay History Center and the Hillsborough River, in proximity to the Yacht Starship Cruise Terminal. Although the park is not extensive, it offers facilities for physical exercise, leisurely strolls, and a playground for children. The park's scenic views are accessible from the Tampa Bay History Center.

It's a beautiful area by the water. The park is small but good for young kids. I'd say 7 and younger will enjoy, but it's small, and older kids would probably get bored easily. It is near the street and there's no barrier so you have to be very vigilant. There's also a grass area and trees by the park where the kiddos can run and play. Also, a pier & lookout directly behind the park that is pretty. No restrooms though but we were able to walk a shortish distance (doesn't feel short when you have a small child that needs to pee) to Marriort, park our stroller near the steps and go inside so our kids could use the restroom.

Great place, amazing views, great boatdwalk!

The benches built from rock and hand painted seat backs from artist P.K. hope this is a friend because I have questions, the art has hidden meaning! There is so much great photography moments and everyone is out staying in shape or getting in shape. The grounds are kept really nice. The people you have to dodge and be careful when riding your bikes. Bring a lunch or if there is an event there will be good food trucks with variety of different cuisines.

Beautiful park. The river walk in the evening towards night is beautiful 🤩. Loved walking around and clicking pictures 😍. Tampa is always beautiful 🥰. Only complaint- people don’t wear mask, no social distancing, and just ignorant 😤😠 Most of the restaurants along the riverwalk had soo many people, heavy crowds, no masks, just walking around and dancing and shouting. Ufff 🙄 too many ignorant people around 🤦🏾‍♂️.
