Tarpon Springs, Florida

Always a favorite for the winter crowd. Great Greek restaurants and pastries. Several super seafood restaurants but the historical sponge center of North America is what brings the tourist in. Makes for an enjoyable afternoon of strolling, window shopping and watching the boats in the harbor.

John's Trip Comments

Have been there many times, and with each visit there always appears to be something I missed before. Shopping is a major item with many souvenier shops where prices seem lower than most. Likely the competition. The Greek restaurants are well visited along with the pastry shops. Several displays are set up on the sponge divers along with excursions on boats to the diving areas.

John`s Recollections - 2009 Cannot count the times I have returned to sample the shrimp plates or the fantastic greek pastries at one of the local restaurants. A favorite tourist stop for many to search for a souvenir to bring home or to sample food at the greek restaurants. Fishing boats or statues continue to show the history of this sponge capital of North America. Tarpon Springs FL US Clearwater, Dunedin, St Petes area Search Pet Friendly Hotels
