About Chioggia
Chioggia sits on a small island at the southern entrance to the Venetian Lagoon, with causeways to the mainland and to Sottomarina. It is often called Little Venice because of its few canals, the main one the Canale Vena, and narrow streets known as calli. Fishing has long been its living. Across a 700-metre bridge, Sottomarina is a busy seaside resort on a peninsula, with a sandy beach about 5.5 km long and a seafront promenade of over 2 km. The homes are small, mostly for two to four people, nearly all with air conditioning but rarely a garden or pool.
Is Chioggia right for you?
- Best for
- Couples wanting canals, fish and a beach near Venice
- Not for you if
- You want a garden or pool at the house, because almost none of the homes here have either.
