Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks (spongedocks.net)

The Sponge Docks along Dodecanese Boulevard are the historic heart of Tarpon Springs, shaped by Greek sponge divers who began arriving from the Dodecanese islands around 1905. Today the waterfront is lined with natural sponge shops, Greek restaurants and bakeries, and boats offering sightseeing cruises and fishing trips on the Anclote River. The spongedocks.net guide covers the area's shops, food, attractions, and local events.
