A bucket-and-spade classic

The essence of traditional Italy, Lido di Jesolo’s a trendy scene of blue-and-white-striped loungers sitting before rolling waves. This sun-freckled resort offers kilometres upon kilometres of Blue Flag beach. It’s got a beside-the-pier vibe with more charisma than you can shake an ice lolly stick at.

Venetian Vibrance

A day trip to Venice has to be on the cards. Immerse yourself in pure beauty between a maze of gondolas and serene cityscapes, sampling sumptuous local delicacies as you explore. Stay a while and experience a cosmopolitan night out, or head back to the resort for laid-back bars and after-dark clubs.

Family fun

When it comes to fun-filled family days out, look no further than Jesolandia. From bumper cars to revolving rides, you can get your theme park fix within seconds of entering this colour-clad fantasy realm. Throw in a waterpark and world-famous city right on your doorstep, and there’s plenty to keep the whole family entertained.

Beaches

Much of Lido di Jesolo’s iconic strip belongs to the hotels, which gives it a pristine, first-class sheen. For a free spot to bathe on, make a beeline for the beach near Piazza Brescia and sprawl out in the sun. There are some privately owned patches too, depending on where you stay.

Sights

The island of Murano is known for its glassmaking tradition, while back on the peninsula, you’ll find a beautiful 11th-century cathedral in the picturesque village of Caorle. To the west of Lido di Jesolo, pay homage to the town’s maritime heritage with a visit to its lighthouse and pretty marina.

Activities

Fun-seekers can revel in the rush of one of Europe’s highest waterslides at Caribe Bay – the waterpark with crazy rides and colourful shows to keep you smiling all day. Enjoy all the fun of the fair at Jesolandia along with a beachside promenade perfect for a sunny stroll.

Eating and drinking (beaches)

It’ll come as no surprise that there’s plenty of pizza and pasta to be enjoyed here, but the seafront location means fish is popular too. Tuck into the Venetian speciality fritto misto – mouth-watering morsels of fresh fried fish. Spaghetti vongole made with clams, herbs and wine, is another must-try.
3

Shopping (beaches)

Running parallel to the beach is the supersized shopping centre – Via Bafile. This offers everything from chic boutiques selling the latest in Italian style to classic souvenir shops. For a more authentic experience, join the locals at the Friday market in the Old Town – you could even pick up the odd antique.

Nightlife

Nights out in Lido di Jesolo are fun with a twist of cheese. Take your pick between casual, laidback pubs and up-all-night clubs. Hotspots include venues hosting international acts and superstar DJs, while there’s one particular joint famed for its acrobatic barmen and open-air dancefloor that’s animated until the small hours.
