The Beach
|
|
| |
The BEACH it’s
really unique because of its thin, golden sand, its
slowly sloping bed which allows children to enjoy
the sea and last but not least, the clean, quiet water,
protected by all the dikes built by every private
baths.
|
You can choose the public baths
of S.Nicolò or Alberoni, with
their typical sandhills, or the free rocks at the
Murazzi in Malamocco, or even the
most elegant and organized private baths in the central
part of Lido: anyone’s taste can be satisfied.
|
The first private baths were built in 1857 at the
end of the path connecting S.Maria Elisabetta to the
sea. They were the “Big baths on the sea waves”:
for the first time this part of the island began to
be crowded with tourists and year after year Lido
got the surname of “Golden Island.” |

The beach-hut (CAPANNA)
has always been very peculiar on Lido’s beach:
it’s a special beach cabin with a veranda and
a sun-curtain in the front, which is an absolute new
invention for the beach life. This allows the whole
family to stay all day long at the beach, women can
leave their children in the safe shades or have some
chats with the neighbours. |
But the beach hut can also keep everybody’s
privacy away from curious eyes. Moreover, there is no need
of sun umbrellas and therefore everybody can enjoy the sea
bank.
With its colours, its atmosphere, its scented avenues with
so many new or old hotels, its liberty-style houses with
nice gardens and its historical evidences, Lido really is
an all-year-long unique place: after a visit of Venice this
island can truly offer a tourist all he deserves: the absolute
quietness and rest in a beautiful green scenery. |
