Dive into the history, culture, and adventure in Tarpon Springs! The village of Tarpon Springs has been known well over a century for its Greek culture and the many Greek-American families who for generations have called it home. Sponge divers from the Mediterranean originally settled in this, "the sponge capital of the world" when they found that the Gulf of Mexico and Straits of Florida were "the place" in America where sponges abound. Today, this area is home to many family-owned Greek restaurants, bakeries, and markets, and the locals are as friendly and welcoming as in the old country!

On this SerVacation, you will start the morning with a wonderful volunteer service opportunity, followed by a behind-the-scenes tour of the Tarpon Springs sponge docks and sponge exchange, an authentic Greek lunch, a sponge boat ride experience like no other, and as if that’s not enough, a coffee and pastry tasting!

Explore our nation’s rich military heritage aboard the American Victory Ship docked in beautiful downtown Tampa! You and your group will pack care packages for military service members serving overseas, hear from an active duty officer who will give a fun introduction to the branches of the military, tour the American Victory Ship, and enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch from Mission BBQ all while onboard one of only four operational WWII ships in the country!
