Entering the Intercoastal waterway at Boca Grande you can navigate along protected waters to Sarasota. Building of the ICW created the Island of Venice Florida. This view is looking north along the city coastline. The Venice coastline is only 2 miles in length and the hughest buildings are limited to 11 stories tall.

Venice beach extends for many miles Southward from the Jettys inlet, past a limited amount of Condominiums, private homes, a public fishing pier, Casperson Beach Park and into Manasota Key Beach and Charlotte County, Englewood Beach area. What you see is what you get as there can be no new development along the coastline.
