Lido di Venezia

Veneto

A narrow sand barrier separating the Venetian Lagoon from the open Adriatic, the Lido has been a bathing resort since the 19th century and hosts the Venice Film Festival each September at its Art Deco Palazzo del Cinema. Free public beach alternates with historic bathing establishments along its length, and bikes are the easiest way to get around the car-light island.
