Venice is a popular destination for a vacation in Italy. With numerous Venice hotels and countless cultural attractions, there is plenty to see and do in this ancient city. However, while everyone is sure to visit St. Mark’s or take a gondola ride, not everyone remembers appreciating Jesolo’s natural wonder.
Jesolo is a popular resort town on the Adriatic coast of northern Italy, just a short boat ride from Venice. The city has developed well for tourism, with abundant recreation options for people of all ages. With its ideal proximity to Venice, guests can easily stay at any of the Venice hotels and appreciate Jesolo day by day.
There is much to appreciate in Jesolo. First of all, it is the beach. The beach stretches for fifteen kilometers along the coast, complete with fine dolomite sand. This stunning beach is not only beautiful and comfortable, but it easily accommodates numerous tourists. The beach is wide and long, allowing for a wide variety of activities along the beach, including sand sports, lounging, and exploring.
Whether on the beach or off the beach, there are plenty of opportunities for activities in Jesolo. For the beach, guests can enjoy swimming, sailing and windsurfing, perfect for beginners and experts alike. For some time away from the sand, there are opportunities for biking, walking, go-karting, tennis, and more. Whether it’s a round of miniature golf for the family or an intense game of soccer for the true enthusiast, Jesolo has it all, with recreational facilities and rental options available throughout the area.
For those looking for a little more leisure, Jesolo also offers less strenuous options. Guests of all ages enjoy the shops available in the city, and everyone will surely appreciate the many dining options in Jesolo. The selection of food ranges from authentic restaurants to more international flavours, so there is sure to be something for every palate. Restaurants are also available near the beach, making it easy to transition from a day on the sand to a hearty meal.
Although many people who stay in Venice hotels appreciate Jesolo as a day trip, it’s certainly not the only time this Italian resort is a good choice. By contrast, Jesolo has an outstanding nightlife. The city becomes pedestrianized at six in the evening and remains closed to car traffic until eight in the morning. This makes the shops and restaurants ideal for the evening hours, and also makes the bars and clubs perfect all night long. There are plenty of places to enjoy a good drink or a late meal, and there are vibrant clubs, offering distinctive atmospheres and music.
Jesolo has a variety of hotels with good beach access, however the area can be quite crowded and limited for those who also wish to appreciate the historical wonders of Venice. For this reason, many guests choose hotels in Venice for their accommodation, in order to enjoy both the cultural atmosphere of the streets of Venice and have the option of participating in the recreational fervor of Jesolo at their leisure. There are even hotels in Venice that are very close to the water, making it easy to take a boat ride to Jesolo on a whim, which can be the perfect Italian vacation.
