The Sanctuary of Caorle on the Sea
Situated on the Adriatic coast between the Lemene and LivenzaRiver estuaries in the Veneto region of northeast Italy is the town of Caorle and its 12,000+ residents. The city is located to the north of Venice and features a colorful historic center, fascinating fishing traditions, and large beaches.  The strength of the local economy is primarily based in summer beach tourism with many tourists visiting from Austria and Germany.

Considering the size of the city, Caorle is not lacking where accommodation is concerned. There are a number vacation rentals nearby Caorle to choose from including some very nice luxury villas.

If you want to avoid the crowds, the months of May, late August, and September are better times to visit the area.  Just remember, it is a coastal resort town and the beaches are going to be crowded during the peak summer months. 

Although most of the tourist activities focus on the beaches and the historic center, there the following exploring and sightseeing options should be considered:

  • Boat excursions – during the summertime, you can take a boat trip to Venice

  • Cathedral of St. Stephen – built in the early part of the 11th century, this is a prime example of Byzantine-Ravennate architecture with Romanesque overtones

  • Church of the Blessed Virgin of the Angel – constructed in ancient times on a promontory overlooking the Adriatic Sea, the waves eventually took its toll by destroying one of the three naves of the structure

  • Lunapark – a family-friendly water park that is perfect for a leisurely day out

  • Orient Express – a small tourist train that runs throughout Caorle during the mornings and evenings

  • Porto Peschereccio – located in back of the historic center, you can spend an afternoon watching the working fishing boats heading out of or coming back into the harbor
