About This Access Site
Maximo Park offers excellent public access to Boca Ciega Bay and greater Tampa Bay waters, making it an ideal launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters. Located in St. Petersburg on 70 acres, the facility features two separate boat ramp areas, courtesy docks for safe loading and unloading, and ample trailer parking. The park's location provides good access to the Gulf of Mexico, making it suitable for both bay paddling and gulf adventures depending on conditions and experience level.

Amenities at Maximo Park include shaded playground areas and multiple small rentable picnic pavilions, making it convenient for families or group outings. Be aware that ramp access may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance and construction projects. The facility continues to receive improvements funded through local and state boating improvement grants.
