Venice

Venice is a city in Sarasota County, Florida, United States.
Venice is a city in Sarasota County, Florida, United States. The city includes what locals call "Venice Island, " which is connected to the mainland through three bridges. Just a 30-minute drive south of Sarasota, Venice is a smaller city with a more laid-back feel. It’s popular because of its coastal location, charming Italian-inspired downtown, and arts-centered focus. 
 
Residents and visitors are drawn to Venice’s six beaches for their famous sunshine, light breezes, and magical sunsets. They're also famous for prehistoric Megalodon shark teeth that wash up in the surf, attracting people from all over the world. 
 
Top spots are Venice Fishing Pier and Sharky’s on the Pier, Venice Beach, Caspersen Beach, and South Brohard Beach and Paw Park—a dog-friendly (off leash) relaxation spot. Just north of Venice—Nokomis Beach and the adjoining 8-mile drive along Casey Key showcases stunning homes along the white sands and rippling waves. The views of both the homes and gulf are so breathtaking, your jaw will drop. 
 
Known for its historic neighborhoods and homes, Venice includes five neighborhood communities: Venice Island, South Venice, Laurel, Osprey, and Nokomis. 
 
Nokomis is an unincorporated town in Sarasota County and a census-designated place (CDP).

Osprey is a census-designated place (CDP) in Sarasota County, Florida, United States. 
 
Each of these areas is within a 20 to 30 minute drive of each other and Sarasota. 
 
More ways to play and explore in Venice: Like Sarasota, Venice has many options for recreation with award-winning golf courses, boating in the gulf, nearby Osprey’s Historic Spanish Point Campus, and lots of farmers markets.
