Italy - Boating Holidays

Regional Highlights

  • Watch glass blowing on the island of Murano
  • See lace-makers at work on Burano
  • Relax on the sandy beaches at Jesolo and other Adriatic seaside resorts
  • Admire world-famous art and architecture of Venice

  • Fantastic food and wine wherever you travel
  • Fast transfers from Marco Polo airport to our base at Casier

The enchanting city of Venice and its surrounding islands are yours to discover and enjoy from the superb vantage position of your own sundeck. For both its breathtaking views and the fantastic cruising experience it offers, the Venetian Lagoon is fast becoming one of our most popular cruising destinations.

Because the waterways of the Venetian Lagoon get very busy, we recommend that only those with some previous boating experience consider Venice as a destination. Public mooring spaces are limited but private moorings, which average €100/night in the peak season, can be booked in advance.
