Medium-sized marina along a river with multiple docks, adjacent surface parking, and nearby residential homes.
Rick's On The River - Marina - Bar - Grill occupies a riverside location in Tampa, Florida, near the confluence of the Hillsborough River and Tampa Bay. The facility serves boaters on the Hillsborough River, which provides direct access to the broader Tampa Bay estuary and the Gulf of Mexico beyond. It supports recreational and leisure boating, including powerboats and smaller craft suited to inland and near-coastal waters.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
