I found lots of shark teeth on the beach of Venice.
Shark teeth are a great item to bring home as a souvenir! What other activities did you do? The gondolas and canals at Venice are very fun.
I went to many restaurants and ate lots of different fish dishes. My favorite were fresh oysters.
Did the fish taste different than in Washington DC? There are some restaurants in Florida that are highly ranked for their fish platters
The were more choices for sure. I never ate so much fish in my life. I think the fish tastes more fresh.
What was your favorite part about visiting Venice beach? Were there any water activities that interested you, like surfing or swimming? Many people are afraid of the water in Florida because of the sharks.
My favorite thing was shell hunting and shark tooth hunting. I did do a lot of swimming and laying in the sand. 
If you ever go back to Florida, there are lots of beaches with great shell hunting opportunities. The Anna Maria Island is highly recommended. There are so many fascinating shell types you can find! Did you find any shells you liked best?
I did! Lots of different shapes and sizes. I had to ship them back because I had too many for the plane. I will go back and check those places out!
Fantastic! When are you thinking about going back? Spring or fall are some of the best times to go since there are less tourists visiting during those seasons.
