The beaches on
Casey Key ...
are as lovely as its
Old Florida setting. Located at the south end of Casey Key directly across
the harbor from Venice, North Jetty Park has a lot to offer. The park lays
claim to nearly a thousand feet of wide, breezy beach, bay and gulf access,
and excellent fishing from the jetty. At certain time of the year the park
is one of the best surfing spots on the Gulf of Mexico. Sarasota County's
oldest public beach, Nokomis Beach encompasses 22 acres of recreation area
with a gulf beach that runs for one-third mile. Popular with families, the
beach has ample free parking, picnic pavilions, a snack bar, and lifeguards.
A boat ramp is located on the Intracoastal Waterway.

"Shark tooth capital of the
world" >>>>>
CASEY KEY --
is hunted for teeth regularly, and the teeth
do just lay there. That's why everybody walks the beach with there
heads down. A keen eye and some sunscreen on your neck is all you
need. Any wave could uncover a trophy......you just need to be there first.
The mighty Megalodon, the largest carnivorous shark to
ever prowl the seas, was over 60 feet in length. Precursor to the modern
Great White shark lived in the Miocene epoch 5 to 24 million years ago. Some
of the larger teeth fetch prices to $5000 and more!
