About This Access Site
A.L. Anderson Park offers a full-service boat ramp providing convenient access to Lake Tarpon in Tarpon Springs. The 24-hour ramp accommodates various watercraft and includes dedicated parking, restrooms, and a $6 launch fee. This 135-acre park is well-suited for kayakers and canoeists looking for a calm-water paddling destination with amenities nearby.

Beyond the ramp, the park features scenic shoreline boardwalks and nature trails where paddlers can observe wildlife—including alligators and bald eagles. Multiple picnic shelters, a dog park, and a swimming area make it a family-friendly destination. The peaceful waters of Lake Tarpon and Salmon Bay provide good conditions for recreational paddling and fishing. Note that park hours are generally 7am to sunset, though the boat ramp operates 24 hours daily.
