Venice is known as the Shark’s Tooth Capital of the World. There are plenty of places to search for these fossilized teeth by sifting through the sand along Venice’s 14 miles of beaches. The Island of Venice is the heart of Venice and offers a bustling downtown atmosphere with charming and elegant eateries, and boutique shopping. Its downtown is graced by northern Italian architecture and beautifully landscaped roads. The golf cart friendly island also offers an abundance of parks, dog beach, splash pad, tennis/basketball courts, golf course, municipal airport, Venice Community Theatre, Venice Arts Center, Community Center, boat club, yacht club and a new public library. There are several schools and three A-Rated schools on the island offering various opportunities for students. This seaside community provides a small town feel through friendly smiles and beautiful beaches.
Once off the Island of Venice, residents and guests will enjoy a multitude of
communities, private and public golf courses, shopping, the Legacy Trail, boating, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and much more. The furthest outreach of Venice is only 20-25 minutes to the beach along the Gulf of Mexico.
