Whenever I go to Tarpon Springs I park in the street just behind the Sponge Exchange.
I always walk through and if I am with visitors we take a look in the shops. There is a beautiful linen shop but the prices are very high.
Len sometimes has a sugar free ice cream in the, you guessed it, ice cream shop.
There was other shops that sell clothes, jewelery, candles, and of course a restaurant. In the season there are also food and drink stands.
This is a tourist attraction but great to visit with out of town visitors.
