Slipaway Food Truck Park & Marina under construction in Cape Coral
The Floridant/10281335

CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Floridant -- A one-of-a-kind experience coming soon to Cape Coral, Slipaway Food Truck Park & Marina, is now under construction at 1811 Cape Coral Parkway E. at the foot of the Cape Coral Bridge.

The family-friendly waterfront destination will feature outdoor fun and entertainment, 10 food trucks, 30 boat slips, a fuel dock and more. The space will accommodate regular seating for 300 guests and up to 500 guests for special events. The concept aims to celebrate all that Southwest Florida has to offer including exceptional live music, shady outdoor seating pavilions and a nod to the endangered smalltooth sawfish, a Caloosahatchee River native.

The first part of construction included dredging Mandolin Canal, installing a new seawall, establishing foundations for all eight buildings and structures, and beginning ground-up work on the Central Pavilion, which will offer 154 seats and a waterfront bar. Now, teams are beginning construction on the Ship's Store behind the fuel dock, which will offer grab-and-go beverages and Slipaway merchandise. The park will also feature a 120-spot parking lot and 1,370 feet of boardwalk paths. It's slated for completion in spring 2025.
