The FAA records 43 operational heliports and helipads within 25 miles of Tampa. Not one of them is designated public use, so every arrival is by the owner's permission. A charter operator arranges that permission while planning the flight, which is why the owner contact on a record matters more than the pad does.

They sit across Tampa (13), Brandon (3), New Port Richey (3), Wesley Chapel (3), Largo (2), Lutz (2), and other communities in the metro.
Heliports only. Airports are a separate class of facility and are not counted here, and a charter into Tampa may well work from one.
Every heliport within 25 miles of Tampa
Distance is measured from the middle of Tampa, so the top of this list is what sits closest to town. Pad size is the landing area, not the property. Open any record on the map for surface, lighting, elevation, inspection date, and the owner contact that gets you permission.

Common questions
How many heliports are in Tampa?
The FAA records 43 operational heliports and helipads within 25 miles of Tampa. Of those, 21 are hospital or medical pads and 16 are corporate or private sites.
Are there public-use heliports in Tampa?
No. Every one of the 43 heliports in the Tampa area is private use, which means landing starts with permission from the owner or manager. A charter operator arranges that as part of planning the flight. The public-use designation is rare everywhere: only 56 heliports carry it nationally.
Does this include Tampa airports?
No. Airports are a separate class of facility, and a charter flight into Tampa may well use one: helicopters operate from airport ramps and FBOs as a matter of routine. This list covers heliports and helipads, the sites the FAA registers specifically for helicopter operations.
