In addition to pleasant relaxation by the sea, a vacation or a weekend in Eraclea Mare at the Hotel Lory is an occasion to visit historic villages with ancient origins like Portogruaro and Concordia Saggitaria, the fascinating Summaga Abbey, the Caorle lagoon where Hemingway loved to hunt, or to follow the DOC Wine Road of Lison Pramaggiore and visit the wine cellars to discover traditional tastes and products. Or to spend a day with the kids in Jesolo at Aqualandia, a water park with a Caribbean atmosphere and setting and the highest water slide in the world: 42 meters high and a descent at 100 km/h. Here are some of the Hotel Lory's suggestions.
Venice is beautiful like no other city and the privilege of arriving by sea makes for an unforgettable experience. The Hotel Lory makes reservations for its guests for excursions departing from the port of Caorle, just 10 minutes from Eraclea. The motorship casts off and follows the coast towards Venice, passing by Eraclea, Jesolo and Cavallino and entering Venice at the mouth of the port of the Venice Lido. The landing is just a stone's throw from Saint Mark's Square, the ideal destination for discovering the city's churches, palazzi, museums and romantic views.
During the winter, you can reach Venice by water with a short car ride to the motorship that leaves from Punta Sabbioni
, which is 30 km from Eraclea Mare.
Take a pleasant trip up the Piave River on the Vaporetto del Piave through unique and fascinating natural landscapes to San Donà di Piave, where you can get off to walk along the river in the shade of the willows, white poplars and locust trees (you can also take a bicycle on the vaporetto!), accompanied by the songs of the blackbirds, titmouses, flycatchers, woodpeckers and chaffinches that have found their natural habitat in the park.
For those who love sport fishing, the Hotel Lory provides a hotel motorboat that will take guests for unforgettable days on the open sea facing the Eraclea shore where you will find a variety of marine habitats (including the "tegnue," the rocky outcroppings in the Gulf of Venice) with a variety of fish species. You can fish for mackerel, squid, cuttlefish, white sea bream, codfish, conger eels, scorpion fish, etc.
With a little luck, you might even see dolphins in July
and August, but you can also dive and swim off the boat!
