Sightseeing

This iconic spot is what sold me on Venice as my new home. I love to fish there, sunset watch, watch the boats, almost every time I see manatees, dolphins, birds, and waves crashing on the rocks is mesmerizing. Get there an hour or two before sunset during the months of Oct. thru March if you want a good parking spot for it's a very popular spot. There is also a small food venue there for light snacks.

Lots of parking, a nature boardwalk along the beach, shower stations, bathrooms, and a unique part of Venice beach. This is a great spot to shark tooth hunt along the waterline and along the rocks. Just beware the rocks are not the type to walk barefoot on. It's not as usually packed as the other beaches and offers a feeling of being away from the crowds.

If you are looking for a great kayak, canoe launch area then this one is really neat.

World known for it's views, great food, pier side bar, and live music. The most popular dining experience in Venice so be prepared to wait. The good thing is that you have a pier and the beach as your waiting room.

People love strolling down the sidewalks of Historic downtown Venice. Shopping, restaurants, drinks, and all in unique atmosphere. This is the main hub of Venice Island and leads down to the main Venice Beach public parking. There are shops on Miami Ave, Venice Ave, and Tarpon Ave. so have fun walking walking and exploring the many sights, tastes, and sounds of this Historic downtown. Keep an eye out for the trolley and enjoy a ride around.

My favorite Italian food in town. Family size dishes and great bread. Cash only! One pizza will feed the family and have left overs. Meat balls the size of baseballs. If your a sports fan then the walls of this place will make your jaw drop. Owner has an amazing collection of autographed memorabilia from his time as a sports broadcaster.
