Venice and the Crow’s Nest
Categories :
Our latest adventure is a trip to Captiva Island. We have crew with us this week –Glenn & Nancy & Dave & Charlene. The first stop is the Crow’s Nest Marina in Venice, FL. Venice is known as the shark tooth capital of the world–meaning that combing the beaches will surely turn up some of those deadly teeth. The shark tooth festival will be held this weekend, April 12-14.
The marina is located at the Venice Inlet about as close to the Gulf as possible. The beach is a two minute walk from the marina. The downtown district is about 2 miles away.
