Tarpon Springs and Sponge Docks | Honeymoon Island
What an amazing day we had at Tarpon Springs, Florida, as we visited this quaint town, eating an amazing breakfast at Toula's Trailside Cafe. After that we ventured down Pinellas trail to the Sponge Docks. Here we learned about the world's largest working sponge dock, harvesting tons of living sponges annually for export all over the world.
The sponge industry was started by immigrant Greeks during the early 1900s. They brought their skills and expertise to this area creating a thriving economy in this area. Today, the Greek influence can still be seen in the people, food and culture.
After this, we traveled a short distance to Honeymoon Island near Dunedin to catch some beach time with our dog, and to take in an amazing sunset!
