Named as one of the “happiest seaside towns in America,” Venice, Fl is the perfect place to celebrate your love, an anniversary, or to just to say I love You! Here’s how you can plan your romantic getaway to Venice Beach, Fl.

Watch the sunset

What could be more romantic than watching the sunset together? Popular places to view the sunset are at the Venice Fishing Pier, the Nokomo’s Sunset Hut at Nokomis Beach, or the Crow’s Nest near the South Jetty in Venice. Enjoy from your table at the Crow’s Nest or watch the sunset from the jetty.

Take a walk on the beach

Of course, we all know you came to Venice to enjoy the beach. A relaxing morning, afternoon, or evening stroll, hand in hand, along Venice Beach is just what you need to complete your romantic getaway to Venice Beach, FL. If you happen to be here during a full moon, go for a walk at night and enjoy the soft glow of the moon for a truly romantic setting.

Take a stroll downtown

The historic downtown Venice features many beautiful, walkable streets to explore. Soak up the city’s enchanting “Old Florida” atmosphere with tree-lined streets, 1920s Mediterranean style architecture, and historic buildings that add to the area’s lure. Tampa Avenue is a great place to begin your exploration of iconic landmarks that make Venice so special. Then check out West Venice Avenue where you will bask in the tropical beauty of palm trees, jasmine, hibiscus, and other colorful flowering plants along the street.
