Punta Sabbioni

Cavallino

Punta Sabbioni ↔ Venice

By boat to Venice

Unless you're driving to Venice via Mestre or Chioggia, your only other options are Punta Sabbioni and Jesolo:

From here, the ferry and other public transportation depart for Venice (by boat). In addition to campgrounds in Punta Sabbioni, you'll also find paid parking lots where you can leave your car while you take a trip to Venice.

Travelling to Venice by boat is (in our opinion) the most beautiful way to approach Venice. As a city on the sea, Venice reveals itself in a completely different way – and so much better – than when travelling by any other means of transport.
