About Downtown
Tavares
Downtown Tavares, located between Lake Dora and Lake Eustis, is a waterfront and historic Tavares neighborhood with a seaplane marina and a walkable lakefront promenade. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around W Ruby St and N Sinclair Ave, where patios, docks, and storefronts frame the view of seaplanes and boats coming and going. Brick-faced civic buildings and low-rise blocks give the streets a classic small-city grid, while the shoreline keeps the pace tied to the water. Wooton Park sets the public living room with lawns, a splash pad, and festival space. The Tavares Seaplane Base and Marina and the Tavares Pavilion on the Lake act as signature gathering spots for waterfront events and dining. A short stroll links parks, piers, and the downtown storefront strip into one continuous loop.
