Porto Di Lido-Venezia, Venice

Lido di Venezia, or simply "the Lido," is an 11-kilometer-long island that separates the Venetian Lagoon from the Adriatic Sea. This island, home to around 20,400 residents, boasts ancient origins as the first settlement in the Lagoon area. Lido now serves as a tranquil dormitory suburb of Venice and a popular summer resort.

Lido offers a serene escape with both public and private beaches, perfect for relaxation. Enjoy biking paths and proximity to cultural events without the crowds of Venice itself. Explore the fascinating village of Malamocco, cloaked in legends and rooted in Roman civilization. Relax on the sunny shores of Blue Moon Beach with its warm waters, pristine pool, and convenient amenities. Visit the Chiesa Di San Nicolò, an important Venetian church rich in history.

For shopping, Lido caters mostly to locals, but you'll find a selection of boutiques along the Gran Viale Santa Maria Elisabetta. Explore Via Lepanto for pedestrian zones and Saturday street markets. The Il Farmer's Market offers food and non-food items on Fridays and Tuesdays, while the Conad City supermarket and Rizzo deli provide grocery options. Rizzo's cafe near the waterbus station is a great spot to grab a bite. During the summer, Lido transforms into a vibrant nightlife scene with lively beach bars and clubs.
