Venice

Venice is a city on Florida’s Gulf Coast, famous for its world-class beaches and stunning natural beauty. Settled in the 1870s, the City of Venice was incorporated in 1927. This fascinating town with rich history and culture is also known for its 14 miles of beach! Did you know Venice is known as the Shark Tooth Capital of the World?!  For millions of years, various species of shark (including the prehistoric Megalodon) have made the coastal waters of Venice their home. The coastal appeal of Venice delights its visitors and residents alike. In fact, Coastal Living has named Venice as one of the top 10 Happiest Seaside Towns – by virtue of its “big heart” and “pearly-white beaches.” Whether you love strolling the beach looking for Venice’s famous shark teeth, checking out the fascinating architecture and history of the city, or simply enjoying the sunny weather, Venice is an amazing place to live and retire.
