About This Access Site
Rick's on the River is a public boat ramp located on the Hillsborough River in Tampa, offering convenient access to this popular urban waterway. The ramp accommodates vessels of various sizes and is funded through the Tampa Bay Estuary Program. **Note: Airboats are prohibited at this access point.**

From this launch, paddlers and boaters can explore upriver via Seddon Channel, the continuation of the Hillsborough River that runs between Davis Island and Harbour Island. This makes Rick's a good starting point for kayakers and canoeists interested in exploring the river's upper reaches. The site is one of several public ramps in Hillsborough County, making it part of a well-developed system of water access points throughout the region.
