Lots of sport on the beach

Do you want something more than just a swim from the pier and a walk by the sea? There is no shortage of beach sports in Jesolo: football, beach volleyball, basketball, and tennis tournaments at the ‘Play Village’, kart racing on the famous ‘Pista Azzurra’ circuit. In addition, golf enthusiasts can find a 900,000-square meters course at the Jesolo Golf Club.

If you’re an adrenaline junkie, try the bungee jumping platform at Jesolo’s Caribe Bay by Aqualandia, or slide like a bullet from the highest water slide in Europe. Then you can relax and rest in the pools with real Caribbean sand at the bottom!

 

Shop ‘till you drop

In Jesolo, you can enjoy shopping and nightlife in one of the largest pedestrian areas in Europe with shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs. What’s more, the open-air Jesolo Laguna Shopping mall has shops selling clothes and household items as well as restaurants, bars, and ice cream parlors.

If you’re crazy about designer clothes but don't want to spend a fortune, take a trip to the McArthurGlen Designer Outlet in Noventa di Piave, not far from Jesolo: a real Venetian-style city completely dedicated to luxury shopping!

 

Nature between sea and lagoon

During your holiday in Jesolo, you’ll be captivated by nature, suspended between sea and lagoon. Take a bike ride, a boat trip or a walk to discover the traditional fishing valleys and the lagoon sandbanks, an ideal habitat for marsh birds.

The archaeological site of the Antiche Mura showcases the city’s past with the remains of the ancient Cathedral of Santa Maria and its wonderful mosaic floor.

Discover the medieval charm of Torre Caligo, an ancient fortress located on the banks of the Caligo canal. Want to learn more about the history of Equilium, the ancient name of Jesolo? Visit the Sala Tiepolo of Jesolo APT and the Civic Museum of Natural History with around 15,000 items on display.

 

Trips to Venice and Veneto

Jesolo boasts a strategic location. As an excellent starting point for excursions to Venice and the lagoon islands, there are dozens of day tours which will take you to Murano, Burano and Torcello and even as far as Venice. The starting point is Punta Sabbioni and the motorboat trip is part of the fun: you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the lagoon while a guide tells you stories and anecdotes about the area.

You can also pick a tour that goes even further afield with day trips to Treviso, Verona, the Prosecco hills and even Cortina d'Ampezzo!
