About chartering in Venezia

Chartering in Venezia offers a unique blend of historic grandeur and open-water freedom, starting from the iconic St. Mark's Basin. The primary departure point is Venezia Certosa Marina on Isola della Certosa, the only harbor in Venice accommodating vessels up to 60 meters with 24/7 surveillance. From here, a day trip easily reaches the lagoon islands of Murano and Burano, or extends to the sandy shores of the Adriatic near Sorrento and Capri.

Alternative pick-up spots include Fondamente Nove for quick access to the northern lagoon and the Zattere promenade along the Giudecca Canal. For those arriving by car, Tronchetto or Piazzale Roma provide convenient transfer points to the marinas. The setting ensures you sail directly past Venice's world-famous skyline before entering the serene waters of the Venetian Lagoon.
