If you live in Florida, Tarpon Springs is home of the sponge divers/docks. Endless supply of natural sponges at all the little gift shops there. It’s worth a trip. Great food etc. largest Greek community in the nation.
You’re welcome! Tarpon is a great place to bring a date, I’ve found and always a good time for out-of-town family and friends visiting. There’s so much to look at, food to try, bars and usually music and you can take boat rides. The old downtown has a lot of unusual shops. It’s always a blast and you can park and walk to almost everything. It’s very hot in the summer months but Oct thru April is beautiful. There’s a fudge shop there my parents used to buy fudge from and ship it to me when I was in the MC. It was made not to melt in high heat, was so awesome. Also they had a big Trump store before the election. Not sure if it’s still up but a lot of the people I’ve talked to working in the stores are Trump supporters. You can tell because they sell a lot of Trump merchandise and they’re not afraid to put it in windows etc. Also, I didn’t see many masks last time I was there. It seemed like life was normal. One last thing... Lake Tarpon is fantastic for Bass fishing etc.
Art supply store like Michael’s or Hobby Lobby. They will be next to the paint brushes, palettes knives and palette trays.
