Venice Lagoon Raid

-

What is the Venice lagoon Raid "Classic"?
It's a boat tour in 5 days, wandering around the Venice Lagoon, between water and land, discovering the quietest and most poetic spots of the Venice not normally seen by tourists, uncontaminated by roaring engines. In the historical centre of Venice you can wander silently in the "calli", on the Lagoon the peace and tranquillity is granted by oars or sails, triangles stolen from the deep blue sky. It’s an opportunity not to be missed to stop an gaze while going! …going sailing!! Five days at the end of spring, when the wind accompanies you wherever you go and the water under the hull is fresh, five days along a magic route that develops through the isles, the canals, the nets placed by fishermen for centuries under the silent flight of the seagulls... tenderly touching Venice as you can do only by boat. It’s a bubble of saltish water in which, for some days, tradition and innovation float together, the ancient colours of the wood and the bright ones of the more modern materials... latin, “al terzo”, bermudian sails... expert sailors and Lagoon new-timers, enthusiastic and passionate men and women. It’s a competition in which, aside from the final result, the first prize is for everyone because those who participate win an adventure which they won’t forget very easily. Classic boats together with the more modern and performing ones, they engage and overtake playing with the wind in order to reach, when the light will sit west and the moorings will be safe, the same goal: share everything the day has donated with the others. Tricky tides, invisible sand spots, whimsical winds and unforeseeable weather make the raid an authentic lagoon safari, a nautical adventure which is unique in its genre. You will want to come back, that’s for granted!
