Aventura vacation rentals and Best Place to Find Shark Teeth:
Venice
Who would have thought that the beautiful beaches of this town were the favorite hangout for the toothy prehistoric choppers
many eons ago? The ancient riverbed about a mile off Venice beach is known as the "Shark Tooth Capital of the World."
For years divers have been grunging in the less than clear water finding enormous shark teeth. Some can actually bring in a
few hundred dollars. But for most of us, to find a few for a keepsake pendant is worth the trip alone.
Aventura vacation rentals and Best Place to Find Artificial Reefs: Miami / Fort Lauderdale
Just offshore within sight of the haute couture hotels that have captivated these beaches are a string of wrecks that appear
to mimic the accommodations. In fact, that is exactly what these wrecks are - fish hotels.
An aggressive artificial reef program has sent dozens of wrecks to the seafloor, including three retired oil platforms called
Tenneco Towers. The rigs are covered in corals and sponges and populated with schools of fish. Many of these wrecks are lined
up stern to bow and stretch for miles. Miami's "Wreck Trek" is a cluster of sites that can be dived in a single tank - two if
you want to see more. Sites include a 65-foot steel tug, two M60 tanks, the 110-foot Billy's Barge, Ben's Antennae Reef and
dozens of 100-foot plus freighters.
