Collecting Sharks Teeth on Casey Key Beach

Casey Key SunsetYou’ll see many walkers on Casey Key Beach with their heads down. They are looking for sharks’ teeth, shells and pieces of sea glass. Jewelry makers use sharks’ teeth especially in expensive designs and according to some sources rare sharks’ teeth can command a price of up to $5,000.

Divers enjoy the cool Gulf waters searching for sharks’ teeth in the Venice, FL and Casey Key area too. Dive sites offer information on spots to work near and around both Venice and Casey Key. Read more on this Florida fossil site.

Both Casey Key and Venice are vacation destinations for avid collectors of sharks’ teeth. Venice even hosts an event around the first of April each year called the Shark’s Tooth Festival. This year the event is April 9,10, and 11 at the Venice Airport Festival Grounds. Browse among fossil vendors, arts and crafts booths and enjoy shark tooth hunts. Be sure to bring sunscreen. The back of your neck might need it!

Casey Key is a private island located about 15 miles south of downtown Sarasota, Florida. This Sarasota neighborhood is known for being a tropical paradise where many celebrities reside. The 8 mile barrier island is also home to extraordinary sunsets!
