But don’t forget bicycles!
They are easy to rent and even most hotels provide
them complimentarily. You can take many pleasant
rides from end to end of Lido. Let’s take
a start from Malamocco! Malamocco
(towards SW), was the first dodge’s habited
area and it’s still a typical village, where
you can find calli, campielli (venetian typical
small squares), gothic houses and popular restaurants
with some good wine, too.

Hereafter you can keep going towards the Alberoni,at
the far end of the island where you will find a
deep sandy beach, with dunes and centuries-old shady
trees, but most of all an excellent golf
course. With its sandy ground, natural
drainage and evergreen field the “Golf club
Venezia” is technically one of the best existing
courses you can attend almost all year round and
play on its 18 holes sloping down to the sea. Moreover,
this golf course is absolutely unique because it’s
stretching through the rests of an old Venetian
fortress of the XVII century which has always been
there to protect the Serenissima.

Boats and ferryboats leave from the
Alberoni to Pellestrina, which is
another island and afterwards to Chioggia,
already located on land.
