The Tarpon Inn is a historic hotel located in Port Aransas, Texas, United States that originally opened in 1886.

To strengthen the building against future hurricanes, dozens of pine poles were sunk into 16 to 20 feet of concrete.

The most famous scale is the one signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt, who fished off the Texas Coast in 1937, even though he did not actually stay at the Inn.

Notable guests at the Inn include Clyde Beatty, Douglas Corrigan, Jesse Jones, Hedy Lamarr, Aimee Semple McPherson and Edward Teller.

The travel writer and food critic Duncan Hines was married and spent his honeymoon at the Inn.
