Venice
Beach
At
the west end of Venice Avenue are the smooth, white sand and crystal-blue
waters of Venice Beach. Also known as Shark's Tooth Beach to the locals,
bring a strainer and strain the sand - and you are sure to find small
black fossilized shark's teeth. If you enjoy diving in your leisure
time, a reef containing fossilized material is located quarter mile
offshore.

Casperson
Beach
Untouched.
Secluded. Windswept. These are the words that come to mind when you
visit Casperson Beach. This unspoiled beach is one of the best shelling
beaches in Sarasota. Also a great location for picking up pre-historic
sharks teeth. You will also find a nature trail and see freshwater and
saltwater marshes, mangroves and tidal flats.
