Fred Howard Park is a popular beach and nature preserve located on the north end of Tampa Bay's barrier islands. The Park is connected by a mile-long causeway to the charming town of Tarpon Springs which is home to the area's famous Sponge Docks and a delicious concentration of authentic Greek restaurants.
