Great vlog! Tarpon Springs also has a very nice aquarium where you can feed stingrays and small sharks and hold a baby alligator. Great for kids and adults!

Awesome production quality and wonderful professional presentation

You should make it 10 and add the family owned Tarpon Springs Aquarium- great way to get up close and learn about sea life, reptiles, turtles and snakes. With presentations daily.

Got friends who live there that are of Greek descent and they love it there. We do too when we go to visit! Great vlog!

So cool!

Excellent video- I visited here briefly for some Greek food and then stopped by the bakery a few years ago and it was excellent. Looking to stop by again soon so your video is helpful

If you haven’t tried Orange Cycle Creamery’s lavender ice cream. I can’t say enough about how good it is.

For those with a mystical inclination: The Get a Guru soap shop on Dodecanese is supposedly haunted. I don't shop there much, but when I do, the place does occasionally give me the willies for no discernable reason. There's also the St. Michael Shrine, tucked away in a residential neighborhood a few blocks south of the docks. I've been there several times, and I've never left without St. Michael letting me know he was there.

Fun Fact: Those were not Tarpon Jumping in the bayou, only mistaken for Tarpon. They were actually mullet. We were almost named "mullet springs". Fifth generation Tarpon Springs resident here!

Chad, your voice could sell refrigerators to Eskimos! If you don't have a job as a narrator or public speaking, the world is missing out! AWESOME videos with priceless info as well.

[@ChadGallivanter]

Thank you for those kind words Max!

Odyssey Dolphin Tour with Rick and Capt. Sam is the best. Also, when we go we like to eat at Hellas. The one major thing about this area that really needs attention is the fact that if you are an early person who is up and at em…..there is absolute positively NO PLACE TO EAT BREAKFAST at this place. Don’t come down there at 7:30 am looking for an egg sandwich. You will be hungry. Nobody opens until after 9am and that’s being generous.

Ah, the other side of the FL👍

They need better parking down there at the sponge docks...as much as I like the Sponge Docks it's not worth 10 dollars to park...if they had free parking I think it would attract more visitors locals and vacationers alike...

I love Fotini 🌟 🤩 ✨️ ❤️ 🇬🇷

When is their Greek fest?? Bet its one hell of an event.

[@salvagebank1664]

There are several events throughout the year. Greek Independence Day has a parade and stuff, but Epiphany is by far one of the largest events that comes to Tarpon each year. It is the largest Epiphany celebration outside of Greece.
