The Madeira Beach Nautical Flea Market is one of Tampa Bay’s biggest annual events to find everything water-related. This year, the sprawling two-day market returns bigger than ever on Saturday and Sunday, September 17 and 18 from 9 am – 6 pm.

Each year, hundreds of local shops, dealers and private sellers descend upon R.O.C. Park to showcase and sell their assorted wares. Admission to the event is free, taking place both days at 200 Rex Place Madeira Beach.

While boats and other watercraft are the big ticket items, the flea market promises a wide variety of goods for all interests and ages. “If it’s nautical, you’ll find it here,” organizers say. That includes all types of boating equipment, fishing gear, nautical antiques and artwork, scuba gear, beach attire, boat shoes, jewelry, motors, anchors, tackle, hard to find parts and manufacturer close-outs.

And for those interested in getting on the water, an abundance of sellers will be on site ready to make a deal on new and used boats, motors, trailers and jet-skis. Additionally, there will be live music, food and drink vendors, and a family-friendly atmosphere.

Parking on the beaches can be tough, of course, though spots will be available on Rex Place and the Madeira Beach City Hall parking lot. Additional parking will be available at Winn-Dixie and Archibald Memorial Beach Park – a metered lot. Uber and Lyft riders are encouraged to set the drop off address as 200 Municipal Dr., Madeira Beach.
