Venice to Trieste Cruising Guide
An online cruising guide for yachts sailing around Venice and Trieste in Italy.
| Venice to Trieste |
Overview
The northern Adriatic Coast of Italy, comprising the long stretch of shallow lagoons and indented coast between the major ports of Venice and Trieste, has more harbours and marinas per mile than any other part of the Italian peninsula and thus merits its own section. Nothing, of course, rivals the experience of sailing into the lagoon of Venice in one's own yacht, but the whole coastline is a rewarding cruising ground, with spectacular birdlife and some of the most beautiful landscapes to be found anywhere in the Mediterranean. However, the area has some of the highest tides in the Mediterranean, which can be an important factor in the approaches to some of the harbours, is prone to fog at times and can experience vicious and unpredictable thunderstorms, especially during the late Summer. For details of the harbours, see below.
