Safety Harbor Pier

Absolutely if you’re in the area check out The Safety Harbor Pier. Luckily I’ve always been able to find a parking spot and parking is FREE, yay. It’s a nice pier to take a stroll and at the end there is plenty of seating to sit and enjoy the water and scenery. Back on land there is paved walkways, picnic tables and a fountain toward the front with benches. We’ve launched our paddle boards from here and had a wonderful time paddling south and seeing all kinds of wildlife. When you’re done at the pier you can take a nice walk through quaint down down Safety Harbor and get a bite to eat.

I love everything in my little town of Safety Harbor, i just hope they don’t build them condos in front of the Pier,

This is a beautiful pier and park that has plenty of parking, lots of space to relax or take a walk, and is adjacent to the restaurant and shops of downtown Safety Harbor. It is a great place to spend the day, the afternoon or an evening to enjoy the weather, the people and the atmosphere.

My daughter and I went down to the Pier with cupcakes (yum!) to see if we could spot some manatees. We were surprised to also see some baby dolphins! What a great spot to sit and view the water, boats and especially the wildlife. I have been coming down to Safety Harbor somewhat frequently, but always thought the pier was for boats and festivals and was not aware that they had benches and a gazebo. Very cute!

How could a waterside view with boats and nature not be wonderful. I’m a nature lover, and this is a pretty spot to hang out for a little bit. You can sit on a bench, search for dolphins in the water, or pick out a boat that you would like to ride in.
It is located across the street from the beautiful Safety Harbor Resort and Spa. You will also see the park where there are often festivals going on. Across the street, you will find a nice size parking lot, so that you can park, and check out the mini cute downtown with various shops and restaurants in the area.
I really am a fan of Safety Harbor Pier and its surroundings.

At the end of Main street, take a right and you’ll find the Safety harbor Peir, it’s right near the Spa and Resort. it’s actually a lovely little spot to sit and reflect, as you watch the waves lap at the shore line.
They throw some lovely festivals down along the edge, and occasionally you’ll get to hear live music or even catch some of the native wild life as it swims in the water. It’s a little piece of Florida you don’t want to miss.

Really! I’ve started a lot of running races AND training runs here. It’s a great race site! You can do a casual run north up to Phillipe Park and beyond. OR you can run south to Courtney Campbell! Not a runner? You can sit on the dock all day and absorb the view of paradise! You might be surprise at what will pop up in the bay in front of you! It’s right next door to Safety Harbor Resort & Spa, along with all the local spots on Main St!
In fact, I’ll be with Safety Harbor Run Club tonight, running by the Pier, and loving life!

Take a right at the end of Main Street and you will find your way to the Safety Harbor Pier. Right behind the Safety Harbor Resort and Spa.
You will pass by the marina and Veterans Memorial Park. A nice shady spot to watch the boats go by.
I was glad to see the way the pier is well maintained and you will see the fishermen trying their luck. We spotted a manatee and I’ve heard it is also a good spot for dolphin sightings.
They have kayak and paddleboard rentals that may be associated with the resort.
The small park and pier is totally free to enjoy. I think the sunsets would be killer to view from the pier.

Took some time to walk down the pier and see what everyone was catching today and got lucky enough to see a manatee coming out of the water to say «hi» to us, it was great!!!

Went there in the 4^th if July. Safety Harbor has a lot to offer for the family and this pier was something I stumble upon by accident. It is very well maintained and has the regular benches, fish stations, and a covered area as well. Parking is right by and you don’t have to pay. It’s a great place to watch the sunset or fireworks.

On a sunny Saturday afternoon I was driving around the downtown Safety Harbor area, and drove along Safety Harbor’s version of Bayshore Boulevard to check out the upper end of Tampa Bay. Then I circled back to just south of the Safety Harbor Spa and parked my car near the marina along Veterans Memorial Lane. You can get out and walk along past the boats, and then wander out to the Safety Harbor Fishing Pier.
The walkway to the pier is a sturdy wooden boardwalk with high railings all the way out to the covered gazebo at the very end. Along the way you’ll see a number of people with fishing poles and casting nets trying their luck with the little fishies in the brackish water below. There are a couple of cleaning stations along the walkway, and you can expect to see people slicing bait, restringing their hooks, and cleaning their catches as you walk out to the end of the pier.
The gazebo at the far end is quite large with several benches, and most people walk out to the end to take in the view of the Bay with the kayakers, paddle boarders, and various boats. If you’re lucky you’ll see dolphins and possibly manatee, and a whole host of pelicans and gulls. I watched a couple of people hauling in mullet, and most were practicing the fine art of catch and release with their fish.
It’s a very pleasant spot to enjoy a sunny afternoon, or even some moonlight fishing, but don’t expect to be hauling in any great big whoppers as this is the Bay and the best you’ll find will be mullet.

Clean, modern and the key word for some — FREE.
This pier is at the end of Safety Harbor in a newly developed setting. Plenty of parking and the town is in easy walking distance. Dolphins and, most interesting,
Manatees frequent the waters. As for the fish well there are mullet and more mullet. I have never caught anything and frankly, I have never seen anyone catch anything. Its water so there must be fish and you always have a chance, albeit it is Tampa Bay not the Gulf.
If it is a nice few hours you want to spend with your kids or spouse this is a good place. If its fish you want — fish the Gulf piers.
