Venice

You have found one of the best kept secrets in all of Florida….the community of Venice. This beautiful city was voted as a top 10 Happiest Seaside Towns by Coastal Living. Whether you are here for a short weekend or longer, you will sense the quality of life that will draw you back again or, in some cases, make you very glad you made the move.

Venice is a warm, friendly community. Whether you like shopping in the unique stores of the downtown historic Main Street district or prefer golfing, boating, fishing, or just laying on the beach, our five community area of Osprey, Laurel, Nokomis, Venice and South Venice has it all.

There are a number of special surprises awaiting you here. Such as our Venetian Waterway Park, a linear park that parallels both sides of the Intercoastal Waterway. It provides almost 10 miles of waterfront view for exercise and recreational use. Along the park, you can also visit our recently restored Venice Train Depot at the northeast end. In its day, the depot greeted those who had the greatest impact on creating the Venice we know today. Like the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the U.S. Army Air Corp., the Kentucky Military Institute (KMI) and Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Circus all of whom left their mark on our area.

For even more history, check out Historic Spanish Point in Osprey. A trip to this attraction will provide you with great insight into the life and times of our early pioneers. Or, if you want to go further back in time, you can search for sharks teeth on our beaches. Venice has been listed in several publications as being the “Shark’s Tooth Capital of the World”. It also hosts the Shark’s Tooth Festival every year to celebrate the abundance of fossilized shark’s teeth that can be found on the coastal shores here.
