South Jetty / Humphris Park

Humphris Park, on the southern side of the Venice Jetty, provides a beautiful overlook of the channel connecting the Gulf of Mexico to the Intracoastal Waterway. It is a favorite spot of locals and tourists to watch the sunset and to fish for snook, mangrove snapper or sheepshead.

Humphris Park / South Jetty tough parking but lovely views of Venice Beach and the Pier . Dolphins and Manatees swim along the jetty and in the waterway btwn the Nokomis and S Jetty Parks .

Absolutely one of the best outdoor chill spots in the area. Great scenery, a variety of wildlife [dolphins included!] and a generally quiet atmosphere . I hear the fishing is pretty good too!
