LIDO DI JESOLO
This strand of sand a couple of kilometres away from Jesolo is far and away Venetians' preferred beach, with
fine, clean sand, warm, calm waters and beach nightclubs. The most memorable entertainment options are often
spontaneous - so in July and August keep an eye out for flyers offering free admission to clubs (a €5 to €20
value) and announcements of free beach concerts often featuring international acts.
With open cabanas on a raised platform, dance scenes on the sand and occasional DJ duels,

where breezy gazebos, candles and weekend DJs set the mood for private convos.
Getting to Jesolo takes about an hour by car, and can be reached by public transport: take ATVO bus 10a
(€3.80, 70 minutes) from Piazzale Roma. The problem is getting back - the last bus usually leaves at 11.20pm in
summer, and taxis cost upwards of €80. If you can make it to Punta Sabbioni at the tip of the peninsula, you
might be able to catch the LN late-night
vaporetto
back to Venice. For more information, try the
