The Venice lagoon and its islands

A day visiting the lagoon and its islands is a must during your stay in Venice. It is a world within a world, a trip to the past in some ways, a safe discovery of typical aspects that cannot be found elsewhere.

A quick tour of the islands will include: the colourful Burano; Murano, the home of glass; Sant'Erasmo nicknamed 'the garden of Venice'; Torcello, with its precious archaeological heritage. To reach the north lagoon, connections by waterbus depart from the embarcadero of Fondamenta Nuove. The route you choose to take depends on your passions and curiosity.
