Straddling the beautiful Biscayne Bay are six exclusive islands that make for Venetian Islands, a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the exciting Miami Metropolitan Area. The islands are, from west to east: Biscayne Island, San Marco Island, San Marino Island, Di Lido Island, Rivo Alto Island, and Belle Isle. The former three are part of Miami, while the remaining three are considered part of Miami Beach. The string of neighborhoods is conveniently between Downtown Miami and Miami Beach. These manmade islands are connected by bridges from the Miami mainland to Miami Beach, commonly known as the Venetian Causeway, minutes away from Magic City's famed world-class shopping, dining, and cultural activities. Yet, despite its proximity to the metro (and Miami's mass of tourists), Venetian Islands retains a quiet, peaceful vibe, drawing residents from all over the world, including a host of socialites, celebrities, and high-ranking executives and officials. Let's take a closer look at Venetian Islands and uncover the fun and quirky facts that make it one of Miami's most desirable places to live.
