Just south of Venice is Englewood, an unincorporated community that straddles Sarasota and Charlotte Counties. Surrounded by the Gulf on one side and Lemon Bay on the other, Englewood has been called the 'Gem of the Suncoast', thanks to its prime location and its miles of stunning beaches. In addition, Englewood's barrier island, Manasota Key, has four beautiful beaches of its own, each with barbeque pits, bathroom facilities and boardwalks.
The natural beauty of Englewood is considered to be its greatest treasure, and the large number of parks and nature preserves are a testament to this. Some of these parks include Cedar Point, Don Pedro Barrier Island, Indian Mound Park, Kiwanis Park and the Lemon Bay Park and Environmental Center. Lemon Bay itself is an aquatic preserve, with mangroves, sea grasses and oyster communities. Both freshwater and saltwater fishing are extremely popular in this area.
