- | The berthing options in Venice are too numerous to include in one section. The summary table below details the 20 principal marinas and basins suitable for visiting yachts, together with the number of berths, maximum length accommodated and maximum depths at low water. Basically, a yacht has the choice of berthing in '''Chioggia''' at the southern end of the lagoon; in the often crammed basins in '''Venice Central''' itself; on the mainland of '''Mestre''', convenient for the airport; in the '''Cavallino-Treporti''' area on the eastern shore of the lagoon; at the inland river marina of '''Portegrandi''' at the NW end of the lagoon or at one of the marinas at '''Piave Vecchia''' in the river Sile on the Adriatic coast. Although not actually in the lagoon, the Piave Vecchia marinas are included since their good transport links to the centre make them a convenient option when visiting Venice. For full details of the marinas and basins, see the relevant section. <br> | + | The berthing options in Venice are too numerous to include in one section.

| == Offshore Islands and Groups == | | == Offshore Islands and Groups == |
The city of Venice has been the inspiration for poets, artists, musicians and travellers for nearly a thousand years. Constructed on a series of marshy islands by refugees from the Barbarian invasions of the Italian peninsula in the 5th and 6th centuries AD, the ascendancy of Venice began in the 8th century, when the loose federation of island communities freed itself from the yoke of the Byzantine empire and initiated an explosion of commerce that was to transform it by the beginning of the 11th century into one of the most powerful trading centres and maritime powers in the Mediterranean. During the Crusades, Venice expanded its overseas territories until it dominated the trading routes throughout the Eastern Mediterranean via a series of fortified staging posts around the Adriatic and across the Aegean. At its zenith in the 15th and 16th centuries Venice was the most wealthy and glorious city in southern Europe, but a new power, the Ottoman empire, was rising in the East and by 1669, with the loss of its hold on Crete, Venice’s star was waning fast. The final seal on the city’s decline came in 1797 when the government of what was left of the Republic of Venice handed over control to Napoleon’s troops without a fight. But from the ashes of Venice’s imperial might a new industry was born as early as the mid-18th century, when wealthy and cultured travellers from all over the world began to descend on its dazzling array of treasures, which even Napoleon’s attentions had not succeeded in tarnishing. Today the city and the islands of its lagoon attract an astonishing 20 million visitors every year to marvel at Venice’s unique architecture, admire the rich artistic legacy of works by painters such as Giorgione, Titian, Tintoretto and Canaletto, or sample the city’s 400-year old musical tradition with works by renowned composers such as Monteverdi, Gabrieli and Vivaldi. Of course, few of the 20 million visitors can experience Venice in the way that the cruising yachtsman can, for nothing beats the thrill of entering the lagoon of ‘La Serenissima’ in your own vessel, just as almost 20 generations of sailors have done since the return from his 20 years of exploration by Marco Polo around 1295 AD.
During the summer months the prevailing winds in the Adriatic are light to moderate coastal seabreezes. In spring and autumn, northerly winds are more frequent and can quickly rise to near gale force, especially in the northern Adriatic, where the much-feared “bora” is caused by high pressure over the mountains to the NE coupled with low pressure over southern Italy. Fortunately, the fiercest “bora” is normally to be expected in the winter months. Thunderstorms are occasionally experienced in spring and especially autumn and can be accompanied by violent winds of gale force and above. Luckily they are rarely long-lasting. Fog is a further hazard often encountered in the lagoon of Venice, especially in the early and late season.
The berthing options in Venice are too numerous to include in one section. The summary table below details the 20 principal marinas and basins suitable for visiting yachts, together with the number of berths, maximum length accommodated and maximum depths at low water. Basically, a yacht has the choice of berthing in Chioggia at the southern end of the lagoon; in the often crammed basins in Venice Central itself; on the mainland of Mestre, convenient for the airport; in the Cavallino-Treporti area on the eastern shore of the lagoon; at the inland river marina of Portegrandi at the NW end of the lagoon or at one of the marinas at Piave Vecchia in the river Sile on the Adriatic coast. Although not actually in the lagoon, the Piave Vecchia marinas are included since their good transport links to the centre make them a convenient option when visiting Venice. For full details of the marinas and basins, see the relevant section and The Venetian Lagoon.
There are a total of 117 small islands in the lagoon, some inhabited but many of them little more than extensive mudbanks. The principal inhabited islands are as follows:
See separate sections for entries.
Port regulations forbid anchoring in the lagoon, owing to the large numbers of electrical and other cables criss-crossing the lagoon bed.
Submit addresses and contact details of marine related businesses that are of interest to cruisers.

Such is the wealth of attractions in Venice that every visitor will arrive with a special list which grows by the day. Even after a month in the city, most keen tourists would leave with a number of things still undone. The ‘must see’ site would however, include the Grand Canal (preferably by water), lined with some of the most splendid palazzos reflecting Venice’s golden age; the Ponte Rialto (Rialto Bridge), probably the most photographed in the world; St Mark’s Square, with its intriguing bronze figures striking the hour in the 15th century belltower of Torre dell’Orologio and ferociously expensive cafes; the nearby St Mark’s Basilica with its stunning 11th-15th century mosaics; the famous Palazzo Ducale, the seat of the Doges (rulers) of Venice for nearly 400 years, with spectacular paintings by Tintoretto and Veronese and the much-imitated Bridge of Sighs; the church of Santa Maria della Salute with more wonderful paintings by Tintoretto and the Scuola Grande di San Rocco with some of the most breathtaking frescoes in the city. By waterbus essential additions to the itinerary would be the islands of San Giorgio Maggiore with its church (more Tintoretto masterpieces) and monastery gardens; Murano, Venice’s glass-making centre for nearly 1,000 years, with its Museo Vetrario (glass museum) and mosaic-laden church of SS Maria e Donato; Burano, famous for its gaily painted houses and lace-making industry, and Torcello, with its faded charm and impressive Byzantine cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, which boasts some of the finest Byzantine mosaics in existence.
