Start by enjoying the beautiful natural surroundings of Italy’s longest river, the River Po and the Po Delta National Park. Explore the famous fishing town of Chioggia and the islands of the southern Venetian lagoon before exploring the water city of Venice itself. On your return journey, discover the quiet sandy beaches at the mouth of the river near Porto Levante and Albarella for some seaside fun.

 

Porto Levante

Base Manager Marco Leistikow welcomes you to Porto Levante! More suited to the experienced cruiser, this exceptional 400 mile network of navigable canals and waterways takes you south of Venice through the heart of a gigantic nature reserve in the Po delta, famous for its pink flamingos, herons and snipe. Further afield you can admire splendid examples of Palladian architecture along the River Brenta to the heart of the historic city of Padua or follow the graceful River Sile to the ‘water city’ of Treviso..
