Get to enjoy the Sponge Capital of the World! Tarpon is still the world's largest producer of natural sponges. These sponges are actually skeletons of living sea creatures. They can be used for bathing and cleaning. And, as opposed to artificial sponges, they last a long time as mold and bacteria are naturally inhibited. The Sponge Industry helped build a Greek Community that is now famous not only for the world's finest sponges, but for some of the finest Greek Restaurants, Markets, and Bakeries in the Country. What will you find in Tarpon Springs? The Sponge Docks, Greek Restaurants, Bakeries, Attractions, Natural Sponges, Sponge Diving, Tours, Sightseeing Cruises, Unique Greek and Florida Souvenirs, lots of Shopping, Sightseeing and Live Entertainment.
