Venice - Nakomis Beach Drum Circle Photos, Videos, Location

This is a kickin' drum circle on the beach in Venice Florida, on Nakomis Beach. I've been to it a few times and had a ball. Nokomis drum circle is going on Every Wednesday and Saturday. It takes place on Casey Key Public Beach, Nokomis, Fl. 100's of people attend this circle, so try to get there early, because parking is not easy to find! All are welcome. So if you are visiting Venice, Naples, or live nearby be sure to check this one out. It is well known around here, and very popular in the area. It's probably the 2nd biggest one on the west coast of Florida. There is loads of drummers and belly dancers, and hula hoopers to jam and dance with. Lots of seasoned musicians, beginners, families, and curious tourists. Here's some photos, a few videos, and more. This one is lot's of fun, and well worth the drive.

Bring a chair if you like, most everyone does. It's happening every Wednesday and Saturday that starts a couple of hours before sunset, and it ends around 10 PM. It's an open free style community drum circle at the Nakomis public beach.

For directions to the Nokomis Beach drum circle, the address is: 100 Casey Key Rd, Nokomis, FL. The easiest way to find it, other than GPS is to pull up MapQuest, Google, Yahoo Maps, etc. If you are coming from US 41 (The Tamiami Trail) You take Albee Road West to the Beach.
