Day 2 – Feed the Tarpon at Robbie’s $

March 12th, 2010 Categories: 365 Things To Do In Miami

I admit that when I was first invited to feed the tarpon at Robbie’s I wasn’t excited at the idea.  Until I got there, that is.  These fish are HUGE! I’d like to say some are as big as a small loveseat =)

For a buck or so, you get a small bucket of fish and you can walk over to the end of the pier and hand feed these monsters.  They never fail to impress! I love watching the pelicans who are never far behind when you’re flinging a fish.  If you’re quick with the camera you might get yourself a good shot of one.

I have been converted and now ALWAYS tell people to go check out Robbie’s and feed the tarpon. You won’t be sorry.  All you need is gas money and a few bucks for this memorable activity.  Robbie’s Marina is at Mile Marker 97 (bayside) in Islamorada (if you’re from out of town, just head south on US1 ’til you get there).
