Venice Canals and Kid's Play Stations

Enjoy a serene walk along the Venice Canals.

Many of the streets in Venice were once canals. What is left is just a fraction of the once abundant waterways, which were laid out by the City ’s founder Abbot Kinney to be a miniature version of Venice, Italy.

KID'S PLAY STATIONS

Let the kids run free at the play areas by the beach. Venice Recreation and Parks offers two play stations with swings and slides.

Play Station One: Right beside the Venice Recreation Center's office west of the end of Windward Ave

Play Station Two: Rose Ave and the Venice Boardwalk.

Treat the kids to ice cream at Ben & Jerry's located on the Venice Boardwalk.

Or, grab a pizza at Venice Way Pizza, or a meal at The Sidewalk Cafe, all excellent choices for family dining!
