Venice
On a boat departing from Punta Sabbioni, in only 40 minutes you will get to the wonderful, unique city of Venice.
In a few minutes you can walk from Piazza San Marco, Ponte di Rialto to the Accademia, visiting churches and museums, or you can just get lost in the maze of calles (narrow Venetian streets).
Staying at the Fenix Hotel offers you an opportunity to have a trip through Venice's art and cuture, venturing past the area of Piazza San Marco, in search of art treasures preserved in minor museums and in little-known churches. Within the distance of a one-day trip is the charm of the Riviera del Brenta, with its ancient villas, and the delightful Chioggia, the "little Venice".
If you want you can enrich your holiday of relaxation with unforgettable trips to Veneto cities like Venice, Padua, Treviso and Vicenza.
Islands
On a boat departing from the Ricevitoria di Treporti, in a few minutes you will get to the islands of the North Lagoon: Burano, with its characteristic coloured houses, is famous for its laces; it is connected to Mazzorbo by a footbridge. Murano, a place which has been famous over the centuries thanks to the quality of its glass art objects; Torcello, the cradle of the Venetic civilization, with its gorgeous basilica and the arcaeological medieval museum.
But we must not fail to mention the charm of the less known islands: San Francesco del Deserto, Sant'Erasmo, Le Vignole and other minor ones.
Beaches
Within shooting distance from Venice, the Cavallino coast constitutes an extraordinary opportunity to do outdoor tourism
Sure enough, it is the most extended European concentration of 'plein air', with its 15-kilometre-long shore and its many campsites and holiday villages between the lagoon and the sea. The Cavallino's beach, once again for the 2009 bathing season, gained the prestigious 'blue flag' recognition.
Naturalistic routes
.
Behind the golden shore is the enchantment of the lagoon environment, which you can visit on foot or by bike, lead by a competent guide in order to better enjoy this singular, fragile ecosystem, most peculiar synthesis of water and land.
Many are the naturalistic routes of the coast that you can find: lagoon dikes and country roads leading into an environment where silence reigns, the green of the fields, the blue of the water, picturesque panoramic views over the lagoon and its islands.
