Spiaggia di Lido del Sole (Lido North Beach), Venice
Venice's legendary beachfront, the Lido, still preserves traces of its Belle Époque splendor. Many hotels on this charming barrier island provide access to beach clubs adorned with cabanas, striped umbrellas, and comfortable chaise lounges. These facilities are often available to non-guests for a fee, inviting visitors to bask in the sun and embrace the coastal ambiance.
For nature enthusiasts, the public beaches located at both ends of the island offer a more rustic yet enchanting setting, perfect for sinking your toes into the soft sand. With convenient amenities such as food and drink options, lifeguards, showers, and restrooms, these public beaches cater to your needs.
Whether you seek a refreshing swim or a leisurely walk along the shore, the Lido's beaches provide a nice retreat for beachgoers of all kinds.
Tip:
Lido's southern beach, located near the municipal golf course, requires a longer walk (or a bus journey), which results in fewer crowds and a more tranquil atmosphere.

Venice Introduction Walking Tour
Venice is a city that learned early how to live with water-and, ultimately, how to profit from it. Built across hundreds of small islands in a shallow lagoon in the northern Adriatic, it runs without roads, relying solely on canals and bridges. Although the lagoon itself formed thousands of years ago, it was inhabited mainly by fishermen up until the 5th century AD, when waves of barbarian... view more

Piazza San Marco Walking Tour
Piazza San Marco is where Venice has always put on its best face. This is the city’s ceremonial and political core, shaped over centuries as the grand stage of the Venetian Republic. Its story began in the 9th century, when the relics of Saint Mark arrived in the lagoon and instantly raised the evangelist-much as the square built in his name-to the highest rank. From a simple open space, the... view more

Jewish Ghetto Tour
Founded in 1516, the Jewish Ghetto of Venice earns its grim little footnote in European history as the first place officially designated as a “ghetto.” It began as a Venetian compromise with sharp edges: the Papacy urged to expel the Jews, while Venice-never one to waste a useful population-chose to confine them to a small island.

Around Rialto Bridge
The Rialto district represents the earliest urban and commercial core of Venice that has shaped the city’s identity for centuries. Long before grand palaces lined the canals or empires were managed from marble halls, this was the practical heart of the lagoon. Its name comes from Rivo Alto, meaning “high bank,” a rare patch of ground that stayed relatively dry and therefore attracted... view more
