Venice, Florida

The beautiful beaches of Venice Florida are famous for their Fossilized Shark Teeth. You can find them just walking down the beach! Also, Sting Ray tail spines, mouth plates and many many other Pliocene era fossils can be found.

In addition, the grounds all over Venice are composed of Miocene shells. The best place to find them was in cleared parking lots, much to my surprise!
