An annual celebration for members of the Greek Orthodox Church, the country's largest Epiphany Day celebration takes place in Tarpon Springs every January 6.

The day's highlight comes when an Orthodox bishop tosses a cross into Spring Bayou. The town's young men---ages 16-18---dive for it and the finder of the cross is believed to receive added blessings.

If you missed this year's dive, don't fret. Visit St. Pete/Clearwater was on hand for the celebration, capturing all the footage from Spring Bayou and along historic Dodecanese Boulevard.
