Caorle’s Lagoon and the Casoni

The Caorle Lagoon is a protected natural area that boasts its own unique flora (for example orchids, Venetian glasswort, and feathery flax) and recorded migratory and resident birds (over 280 species).

If you love nature, there are many ways to explore this hidden corner of Caorle. The boat excursions on board the motorboat “Arcobaleno” and the Bragozzo “La Serenissima” are among the most fascinating experiences, allowing you to navigate the calm waters and channels that cross the Caorle Lagoon, so dear to Ernest Hemingway.

For fans of sustainable mobility, the lagoon is also easily explored on two wheels. There are many bicycle rental points, offering electric or traditional bikes to follow the trails along the lagoon. The biodiversity of the area makes the lagoon ideal for birdwatching: you can observe migratory bird species inhabiting the area, a true spectacle for nature and photography enthusiasts.

The Casoni of Caorle: A Dive into the History and Tradition of Fishermen

One of the most fascinating aspects of our lagoon is the presence of the casoni of Caorle, ancient fishermen's houses built with simple materials such as reed and wood. These structures, once seasonal shelters for Caorle fishermen, are now a symbol of the Caorle lagoon tradition.
Each casone tells a story of deep connection with nature and the territory, demonstrating the resilience and ingenuity of the people of Caorle, who have always adapted to the rhythms and challenges of the lagoon.
