Details	Directions
From this site: "https://www.frvta.org/florida-fossil-hunting/", fossils can be found at the beach. They say: "If you go a little to the south of Sarasota in the coastal area of Venice, you will be directly above a fossil layer between 18 and 35 feet in depth. You will most likely see a lot of people walking up and down the beach looking for shiny black shark teeth in the sand. If you are interested in quicker results, there is a drop-off ledge where the waves are breaking right at the edge of the water. You can either wade out into the water just a couple of feet or reach down to scoop up handfuls of the sand. You can use either your hands, a simple kitchen strainer or a shovel."	At the beach area, south of the Pier.
