Welcome to Central Florida’s Gulf Coast, where the finest sponges and best Greek food reside! Famous for its history of sponge diving, Tarpon Springs houses the historic Sponge Docks, once the site of this formerly booming industry. Today, it serves as a piece of history and is the premier location for sightseeing, dolphin tours, fishing, and more!
Near the docks, you’ll discover numerous Greek markets, bakeries, and restaurants that line the coast. Visit the famous Hellas Restaurant and Bakery to get a true taste of Greece, or try some fresh Florida seafood at Rusty Bellies Waterfront Grill! Explore this area’s aquarium, splash park, and unique shops, and stop in at one of the community’s entertaining festivals and events.
Tarpon Springs overlooks the glistening Saint Joseph Sound off of the Gulf, and though tourism flourishes here, the residential areas are a large part of what makes this town so charming.
