My wife surprised me with a 3 hour, sunset birthday cruise! Captain Steve Potter and Ann were great! They were very accommodating and even went along with wearing an eye patch! Ann made some nice Happy Hour snacks and they supplied water and soft drinks. We took our own champagne and beer. We were also able to take our Spotify playlist and Captain Potter played it through a nice wireless speaker. There were four of us and we all loved it! (They can take a mx of 6) It was a great time, a great sunset and really nice people doing all the work! We'll be back for sure!

Waterway Park

Reviewed By tagnrocky - Noblesville, United States

We rode our bikes along the intracoastal waterway on a pleasant Sunday afternoon. We accessed the trail from Patriots Park in Venice, rode a few hundred feet down the street and hopped on at the pedestrian bridge. Officially, we were on the Legacy trail headed south until we arrived at the train depot, then continued south from there on the Venician waterway. Surprisingly, there weren’t lots of people. The trail is concrete and passes several parks before looping at the end. A nice pleasant trail with no street crossings.

Yoga on the Beach with Elin (twice in the am and once in the pm), drum circle at sunset, volleyball at 4:30, clean restrooms, lifeguards, and beautiful sand! Who could ask for anything more? Parking has never been an issue for me but many travel by bicycle. I love the mat halfway to the water for those in wheelchairs but I wish it went all the way to the water.

This is the best dog park in SW FL. I wish we lived closer. Our dogs run and play with all the others. Almost all the dogs here are well behaved. Can not wait for it to reopen. Darn Covid19.
