Ruskin Seafood Festival (36th Annual)
SouthShore farming town on the Little Manatee River with bayfront parks and mangroves
Ruskin is an unincorporated community in south-central Hillsborough County, on the north side of the Little Manatee River near Tampa Bay's southeastern shore.
The draw is the water and the preserves.
US 41 runs through the center of town, and I-75 skirts the eastern edge with an exit at College Avenue (SR 674). Downtown Tampa is roughly 24 miles north via I-75 and the Selmon Expressway, so most visits are by car.
