Venice

Venice is quite possibly, the best kept secret on the Suncoast of Florida. This friendly, tropical community has the small town charm of old Florida but with a thriving Island atmosphere that folks find so captivating that with a visit, they move here!  Stroll the quaint downtown area and enjoy a wide array of dining possibilities. WALK to a beautiful beach or to enjoy fishing or just watching the dolphins frolic on the jetty that is the inlet from the Gulf to the ICW. Plus Venice is the southern terminus of the Legacy Trail and if you like to ride your bike or even stroll on some of the nicest scenery on the West Coast of Florida – that’s where you’ll start.
Go find shark’s teeth on the beach at Caspersen Beach or enjoy lunch and many “tasty beverages” at Sharky’s on the Pier. Golf off the Island at a variety of championship courses where you can reside as well, like the Plantation for example.  And families will find once again – Sarasota County offers great public education and Venice has more than it’s share.  Venice is a favorite for Ann and Mike Winger of REMAX Tropical Sands and it will become a favorite of yours as well.
