Water Sports
Being located on the Gulf of Mexico makes Venice a prime location for water sports. One of the things that draws people to the area is that it is known as the Shark's Tooth Capital of the World. There is even the Shark's Tooth and Seafood Festival held annually in August. Many scuba divers take to the waters in search of the prehistoric teeth. In addition to scuba diving, snorkeling is a very popular sport here. There are local merchants that offer lessons and expeditions for beginners, and excursions can be scheduled. Since there are no barrier islands that sit between Venice and the Gulf, boating is an all time favorite for locals and visitors. Boating rental shops are available for boat and jet ski rental. Other sports to be enjoyed in the water include fishing, surfing, parasailing, windsurfing, kayaking and canoeing. Kayaking and canoeing are adventures that can be taken at the Venice Myakka River Park or Higel Park.
