    Feeling the wind while traveling with the "vaporetto" (water bus) is the best way to get in touch with the soul of the lagoon. There are a lot af islands but the best one in my opinion is Certosa. You can reach many different places around included Lido where you can find a relaxing beach. Sunset is very special here. Would be the best way to complete a tour in the Venice Lagoon. Check the fotos

    The Venetian Lagoon is an experience of immersion in the nature. I visit the Lagoon frequently, to walk and to take photos of birds. Last visit was on May, when we started a walk from Lio Piccolo, encountering several species of birds. I suggest the visit to everyone, starting from Treporti or from Lio Maggiore. Best way to visit the Lagoon is by boat, or using a mountain bike, but if you simply like to walk, it is perfect too. During the last visit we found a lot of flamingos

    The Venice Lagoon is an awe-inspiring and enchanting natural wonder that captivates the soul. As one of the most iconic and historically significant landmarks in the world, it offers an experience like no other. Stepping into the Venice Lagoon feels like entering a timeless dream, where centuries-old architecture and Venetian charm blend seamlessly with the tranquil waters. The unique network of canals and waterways, elegantly traversed by gondolas and vaporettos, creates an atmosphere of romance and adventure that is unparalleled. The lagoon's beauty is further enhanced by the stunning architecture of the city, with magnificent palaces, churches, and bridges that seem to float atop the water. The craftsmanship and artistry of these structures are a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Venice. Exploring the Venice Lagoon unveils a world of hidden gems and cultural treasures. From the majestic St. Mark's Square and the iconic St. Mark's Basilica to the artistic wonders housed in the city's museums and galleries, there's no shortage of sights to behold and stories to uncover. As the sun sets over the lagoon, the city takes on a magical glow, adding an extra layer of charm to its already mesmerizing ambiance. The play of light on the water and the reflections of the architecture create an ethereal scene that leaves a lasting impression. However, it's essential to remember that the Venice Lagoon faces challenges, including rising sea levels and overtourism. Preserving this unique ecosystem and cultural treasure is crucial for future generations to experience the beauty and history it holds. Visiting the Venice Lagoon is an unforgettable journey that touches the heart and sparks the imagination. Its timeless allure, artistic splendor, and romantic atmosphere make it a must-see destination for anyone seeking a transformative and enriching travel experience.

    First site you see from a vaporeta ( motorized boat) when you approach Vennice. The Dalmatian coast ( the coast where boats take passingers off) stretches across the lagoon. You can even rent a gondola ( traditional venecian rowing boat). Very nice and lively place full of history.

    We had a great time here! The locals call it Laguna Veneta, it's an enclosed bay on the Adriatic Sea that covers 212 square miles @ 549 square km. After visiting the main Venetian islands, we took a boat trip across the shallow lagoon to the outlying islands of Burano, Murano, and Torcello.
