Fun in the Sun: Venice Beach, Florida
Located in sunny south Florida, Venice is located on the western side of Florida in between Fort Myers and Sarasota, and south of Tampa Bay. This is a beautiful place to spend your vacation, get a tan, and have some serious fun in the sun. Downtown Venice overlooks the Gulf Coast of Mexico and features an abundance of natural beauty plus you can indulge in the lively and interesting art scene. Venice has something to offer both the outdoorsy types as well as those who prefer a laid-back type of vacation. In Venice Beach, you will be able to take advantage of the area’s beautiful white sand beaches, go boating, try your hand at fishing, and be adventurous with many types of water sports. Or, lay in the sun and have cute waiters bring you tropical flavored drinks while you enjoy the beautiful blue ocean. The temperature in Venice is moderate for a nice year-round climate. If you are a golfer, there are several courses to check out – these include the Plantation Golf and Country Club, the Capri Isle Golf Club, the Venice East Golf Club, and the Pelican Pointe Golf & Country Club.
Picture yourself in Venice Beach on vacation. Don’t take any work, your laptop, or anything that could detract from relaxing and enjoying yourself. Get a tan by the private pool of your hotel or vacation rental, have your personal chef make dinner for you and your family or dine in one of the many restaurants in the area. Stroll down to the beach and cozy up next to your sweetheart to watch the sunset together. Some of the nearby towns have much to offer as well. Wander the plentiful shopping malls, noticing that most of the couture designers have their signature stores here (or in nearby Naples). Try not to spend too much of your hard-earned money (it’s easy to do!). If you are single, the nightlife is plentiful – maybe you’ll meet someone to spend the rest of your vacation with!
