| Snook Haven, oil on Panel, 8x8 inches |
There have been a lot of stories of Snook Haven’s history – Tarzan
movies, killer turtles, and other legends. But sometimes, the truth can be
stranger than fiction.
The “Snook’s” first modern-era occupant was a confederacy of smugglers seeking to unload contraband during Prohibition in the late 1920’s and 1930’s. Snook Haven’s location on a remote peninsula along the shores of the Myakka River, upstream from the Gulf of Mexico, made it ideal to land and ship their illegal wares to a thirsty Florida population!

Snook Haven is an idyllic place with a wonderful Restaurant. It is worth of
a visit, enjoying good food and nature pure.
