What It Is

  • The typical boat you board will either be a sampierotta (traditional fishing boat) which seats up to 4 or a bragozzo (two-masted trawler) which seats up to 11 passengers. No matter which one you have you\'ll be able to enjoy the panoramic views of this stunning UNESCO World Heritage City.
  • Cruise across the water toward the island of Sant\'Andrea and admire its 16th century fortress as well as the views of St Mark\'s Basilica behind you. You\'ll then travel across to Lido, the 6.8 mile (11km) long sandbar that sits between the Venetian Lagoon and the Adriatic Sea. Next, you\'ll pass by the remote islands of San Lazzaro degli Armeni, San Servolo, San Clemente, Le Grazie and then back towards Giudecca, and San Giorgio Maggiore where you can admire the light hitting the Salute Church and again, view the stunning scene that is St Mark's from the water.

Your Experience With Venice Sunset Boat Tour

  • Make your way to the meeting point and board your typical Venetian boat where your friendly local skipper/guide is waiting to take you on a very memorable ride through the lagoon.
  • You will travel through St Mark\'s Basin, being able to admire the light catching the architecture in St Mark\'s Square, and along the Venetian Lido, passing some of the area's idyllic islands including Sant\'Andrea, San Lazzaro degli Armeni, San Servolo, San Clemente, Le Grazie, Giudecca, and San Giorgio Maggiore.
  • During the 2 hour ride your skipper will stop the boat and you\'ll be able to drift on the water admiring the various hues of the sunset as you sip on a chilled glass of Prosecco.
  • Afterwards you\'ll make your way back into the centre of Venice via St Elena and Arsenale. just as the city lights are being turned on, depending on the time of your booking and time of season. The tour ends at the original departure point.
