The Sponge Fleet is in! In Tarpon Springs, 1940s. – Swampy’s Florida Postcards.
The fleet’s in in Tarpon Springs in this 1940s postcard.
This is Dodecanese Boulevard that ribbons through the heart of Tarpon Springs. The road is still there but with asphalt on it. That angle the angled parking is now gone. Paid parking is the rule around the area now.
The docks are still there, but not as active as they were many years ago. Most of the dock area are now strung with gift shops. Shells are the popular item.
On the right side restaurants and gift shops sit. Most of the restaurants are worth the trip alone. It’s been a while since I’ve reviewed any of them and will work to return soon to do, at least, that.
