The lively bayfront city of Sarasota sits to the north of Venice, and Port Charlotte's parks and beaches are about the same distance away to the southeast. Take the 60-mile drive to Fort Myers and explore its surrounding parks, like the Charlotte Harbor Reserve State Park. The sights and tastes of Tampa are an easy day trip away - about 70 miles to Venice's north.
Venice Beach, the town's crown jewel, is a certified Blue Wave beach - safe and clean for the whole family. Drop a fishing line at the beach's public pier and try your luck with the local aquatic life. Keep an eye out for dolphins playing offshore! If you're feeling athletic, bring a volleyball and challenge your friends to a game on the sand courts here. Be sure to check out Caspersen Beach to look for washed-up shark teeth - the morning after a storm often yields the best finds.
Golf enthusiasts can tee off at Lake Venice Golf Club, a 27-hole course by the water. Can't get enough of that sunshine and ocean breeze? Bike around the Venetian Waterway Park trail, a walking and biking trail on either side of the Intracoastal Waterway.
