Recommend doing the 90 min. walk and talk tour. The volunteer was so knowledgeable about the restored buildings on the grounds and the history of the area in general. The property has 3 periods of history and you can see the layers of an archaeological dig in one of the buildings. The butterfly house was wonderful, too. The shaded trails along Little Sarasota Bay are an easy walk.

We had site 62 and it was perfect! It was quiet secluded and ample shade. This park was close to paved trails that went on for mile and close to the beaches which made for perfect sunsets. The facilities were great and clean. We had tents and everything was good. We had water, electricity, and even a place to hang our wet clothes. Overall, a 10/10 for us.

What a fantastic shop! It's great to see such a wide range of cups. Additionally, the service is flawless. Enjoy refreshing beverages at the beach or on the patio with your own personalized insulated drinkware. Tervis has been making customized drinkware that keeps cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot in Osprey, Florida for almost 70 years. This Tervis store is on the site of the original factory and offers shoppers a unique experience–you can personalize a design and weld your own tumblers for a $5 up-charge on the price of a 16 or 24-ounce tumbler glass! A small collection of pre-printed wraps and permanent markers are provided for those who don’t want a blank canvas. The Tervis Experience also includes an exhibit of the first Tervis tumbler, a mini-museum, and design studio space. The Tervis Experience is available during regular business hours. You can also visit the Tervis store on St. Armands Circle in Sarasota. Tervis offers drinkware in a variety of sizes from 8 oz. to 24 oz. Choose popular logos, including NFL, NBA, NHL, and Collegiate sports teams, or create your own design with your name, favorite picture, or a personalized message! Add a cover to a tumbler for a great on the go coffee thermos or Sippy cup for small ones. Other accessories include straws, shaker top, and water bottle lid.

Suncoast Adventure Tours and Charters! Absolutely awesome experience! Super informative and so fun. Cap’n Karie took our rag-tag group of spring breakers out on a beautiful day and gave us a great tour. Super welcoming and lighthearted, he provided a comfortable, safe and educational experience! Good times, Great photos and the best memories, we can’t wait to come back and book another adventure!

We did a half day charter with the family and had a great time. Captaim Charlie and Hayden were friendly, helpful, and patient with everyone. When we got back with only about a dozen fish, they were a little apologetic that it wasn't a better day despite their best efforts. They put us on fish, but sometimes they just don't bite. The thing is, the girls wouldn't have known any different whether we brought home 3 or 30. The memories are what will stay with my girls, and the crew made sure those were plentiful. We come to the Venice area a couple of weeks a year, and we WILL plan to be back here. So, if you're looking for an affordable charter for your family with kids, this is the one for you.

My mom and I went on a sunset cruise at Casey Key Water Taxi and had an amazing experience. Truly nothing but good things to say about this business. Capt Charlie was very responsive and accommodating to our last minute request. Capt Hayden gave us a great tour of the Intercostal Waterway and was extremely knowledgeable of the area, houses, restaurants, wildlife, etc. We even got to see a lot of dolphins on our tour! Capt Hayden made sure to get us the best view of the sunset despite the waves and wind. Overall amazing night and highly recommend!
