I have taken so many family members and friends to visit the sponge capital of the world and Greek center of Florida, Tarpon Springs. Located in northern Pinellas County on the gulf, the sponge docks area of the city is full of great Greek food, darling shops with sponges, soaps and other collectibles, dolphin sight seeing boat rides, a cute aquarium for families with young children, an exquisite Greek Orthodox Church and more. It’s fun for all ages and we never tire of our visits there!

Fred Howard Park has something for everyone. The park features several picnic shelters, hiking paths, waterfront views, beautiful trees and plants, playgrounds, water views, birds and other local small critters, and is very well kept. The causeway to the beach island is relatively newly paved and offers parking on one side for watercraft and fishing. The beach on the island is unspoiled and has the beautiful white sand the gulf coast is famous for, as well as some nice huge rocks along the north side for adventurers to climb on. You can spend the day at this park and have a variety of relaxing, beautiful experiences.

Located on the Tarpon Springs Campus of St. Petersburg College, the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art is a modern and contemporary art museum featuring works from the 20th and 21st centuries.

Off the beaten track, the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art on the St. Pete College campus in Clearwater is definitely worth a visit. First of all, they offer free admission to holders of certain area museum membership cards (e.g. St. Pete's Museum of Fine Arts). In addition to the permanent collection of striking art-works (it was the first time that I saw a reproduction of Picasso's Guernica in situ!), there is always a special exhibition in a side gallery. The staff are helpful and welcoming! Perfect respite on a hot summer's day in Florida.

The park is very well maintained from parking, pavilions, paths, tables and grounds. There is a walking path from pavilion one to the back end of park. Through trees and on a Boardwalk along lake. The are out cropings from path with tables to sit right by waters edge. Very peaceful walk with nice scenery. Great place to picnic also has a launch point for boats. I was able to spot four alligators in the lake on my visit. There is swings for kids and ample trash cans around to keep park clean. Not a long walking path maybe 1/2 mile at most so hiking is not happening here. This is a relax, see view, go for a stroll hang out and have picnic place. Does all that very well.
