Venice, Florida is located directly on the Gulf of Mexico just south of Sarasota and Tampa. The town is a laid-back enclave for those seeking coastal living and a small-town feel while being within driving distance of larger cities. 

The town has a significant number of seasonal “snowbirds” and retirees, making the average age here over 60. However, many young families enjoy living here for the safe, quiet, close-knit community and some of the top schools in the state. 

Beach-goers thrive here with quick and easy access to more than 6 pristine beaches just minutes from downtown, while boaters and kayakers love the water access options from the Gulf to the Bays and intracoastal waterways.

Historic downtown Venice is a hidden jewel of Florida with it’s charming architecture and abundance of local shops and restaurants. In addition, the town regularly hosts events and activities including weekly farmers markets, art festivals, sip and stroll events, holiday boat parades and more!
