When the light reflects on the water in Friuli Venezia Giulia, it has a shimmer all of its own.
A shimmer that you see from the boat as you sail towards the
long expanses of golden sand at
Lignano and
Grado, or the
white cliffs towering above the sea when you go towards
Trieste, the easternmost stretch of land in Italy.
Here, nature takes unique forms, such as in the
Marano Lagoon and Grado lagoon, where daily life moves to the time-honoured rhythms of
fishermen's rituals, or in
Muggia, with its delightful Venetian features and styles.
Festivals and food
The local
seafood dishes and other specialities are the result of a special microcosm of traditions and cultures, as are the
folklore and festivals. The
Barcolana is the most popular international la regatta in the Mediterranean and there are also niche events such as Nautilia, in Aprilia Marittima, a second-hand boat show in October.
Numerous facilities for yachts and launches
Lots of tourist ports and quays, 23 marinas, 15,000 moorings and 130 kilometres of coast: these are just some of the things available to sailors in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
