It's got so much more. Local crafts set up shops. Some cool decorations and picture spots. A restaurant and bar. Get you fingers stinky with the tarpon feeding. Hold it out of the water a bit -- they'll jump. They have the walls covered in dollars (like No Name Bar). I'd go back next time in the area -- for the tarpon feeding if nothing else.
[Leroy, 08/07/2023]If you go to the dock, head straight for the netted areas to feed the fish. There are holes large enough to put your hand through to feed them, and the net keeps the pelicans away. Also, beware of the pelicans -- they're aggressive and will sneak up behind you to steal the bait!
[Sam, 01/01/2023]Still fun. Feed the giant fish, not the sneaky pelicans. A man at the dock helps keep the pelicans away from the bait. $1 admission and $3 per bucket of fish.

Robbie's Tarpon Feed is definitely worth a stop if you're in the Keys. Prices have gone up a tad since last report, but it's a good time.
[Michelle, 11/01/2010]The coolest place in the Keys! Hundreds of huge wild tarpon swimming around the docks! And you can buy a bucket of bait to feed them and watch them go crazy after the food!
