We will explore the Venetian Lagoon through alternative itineraries we will sail to the most fascinating places of the lagoon through ghebi and sandbanks we will discover the most unknown and inaccessible islands that can only be reached by kayak which thanks to its flat bottom and rowing propulsion allow you to cross the shallows of the lagoon. Wandering among egrets and herons you will navigate and see incredible scenery, you can take breathtaking photos, or enjoy a beautiful sunny day to discover the most authentic places in the lagoon off the classic routes and mass tourism, we will visit oases of peace and deserted islands in a natural context typical of the lagoon between land and sea. I invite you to read the article they published in Esquire magazine about the experience.
