    Jesolo is divided into two main parts: one is Jesolo Centro (known by locals as Jesolo “Paese”) which is only 3 km from the sea and lies on the banks of the River Sile and the Cavetta canal. Here you can find the City Hall, on the right side of the Sile. From there you can reach the valleys of the Venetian Lagoon and, if you have a bike, you will soon get to the countryside.

    The other part is Jesolo Lido (or as its official name “Lido di Jesolo”), which indicates the beach town itself. This goes from the little fishing village of [wiki=4cf4f2bd6064696d001c30fa31708643]Cortellazzo[/wiki] on the east, at the end of river Piave, to the west where you will find the end of River Sile, the lighthouse (actually it is on the opposite bank of the river) and the famous Terrazzamare Teatrobar, the heart of Jesolo’s summer nightlife.

    Jesolo Lido can be divided into specific areas:
    * Lido Ovest: the western part of the beach, towards Cavallino - Treporti. In this area you will find the Faro (lighthouse), the Porto Turistico (Marina), the end of river Sile, Piazza Nember, Piazza Marina, Piazza Aurora, Camping International, Aqualandia and much more.
    *Lido Centro: the central part, here you will find Piazza Mazzini, Piazza Brescia, Piazza Marconi, Pala Arrex, Picchi Stadium and the nearby roundabout from where you can reach every part of the city, attractions such as Pista Azzurra, Sealife, Tropicarium and more.
    *Lido Est: the eastern part of Jesolo Lido. This area is greener than Ovest and Centro. Here you will find Piazza Milano, Piazza Torino, the city’s Hospital, Parco Grifone.
    *Pineta: This is the area where you will find campings and hotels, it is very quiet and relaxing and pretty close to the village of Cortellazzo, at the end of river Piave.
    • History

      The origin of Jesolo dates back at the time of the fall of the Roman Empire, when barbarian tribes such as the Huns invaded Italy from north-east, forcing the population to move towards the swamp area near the sea. Most of the original inhabitants came from the Roman town of Opitergium (today’s [wiki=7e107c66ccef7f705abff529847dec82]Oderzo[/wiki]). They were all forced to move where now the Venetian Lagoon is, settling down on the small islands and eventually founding towns like [wiki=01884bb547763445f9b09b719c9d5d3c]Eraclea[/wiki] and even [wiki=607d28488d1859e84884914a1b3598bd]Venice[/wiki] itself.

      At the beginning of its history Jesolo was called “Equilium”, from the latin word “equus” which means “horse”. This was probably due to the fact that they were horse breeders. The people there had to fight and claim land to the sea. This process took centuries under the control of the Venice Republic and it literally transformed the territory for example by changing the course of rivers Sile and Piave.

      The beginning of Jesolo as a touristic town dates back to early 20th century, but it was only after the Second World War that the beach town started developing. Unfortunately, at that time there was no regulation and many buildings and hotels were constructed on the seafront. This prevented Jesolo from having a proper seafront like you can see in many other coastal towns around Italy and the world.

  • filter_dramaGet in
    Getting to Jesolo is quite easy during most part of the year, but in the summer traffic is really heavy. So, if you’re coming by car or by bus you might consider arriving in town late afternoon (not in the evening as the main street in Jesolo Lido is pedestrian at night) to avoid peak hours. Be patient if you get stuck in your car and don’t forget to bring some water: the Italian sun is hot in the summer!
    • By car

      A4 motorway and exit at San Dona di Piave - Noventa di Piave. Then follow indications to Jesolo or mare (brown-coloured sign) or to [wiki=632ff8c7cc9e212840f9459f3ec7cb3e]Cavallino[/wiki], which is another very busy touristic area nearby. The motorway exit is around 28 km from Jesolo Lido.

      You will probably arrive in Jesolo Lido at the big “Picchi” roundabout (named after the nearby Picchi Stadium): from here you can reach every part of the city, just pay attention to the roadsigns. If you’re going to Cavallino you have to take the underpass, otherwise stay on the right to enter the roundabout.

      Arriving in Jesolo on the weekends can be difficult due to the heavy traffic. Try not to get in town on Sundays from morning to mid-afternoon or be prepared for long queues.

    • By bus

      From Venice Airport “Marco Polo” or [wiki=9fa41ec12d99720833b10d3a9ab6a5cb]Treviso[/wiki] Airport “Canova” you can get buses run by local company [url=http://www,atvo.it]ATVO[/url]. It will take you to Jesolo Lido bus station, only 5 min walking from Via Bafile, the main street, and the beach.

      You can also get a bus from Piazzale Roma in Venice, the trip takes at least one hour.

    • By Train

      There is no train station in Jesolo. The closest one is in [wiki=f0085594337851bd565fc6c90bab7b84]San Donà di Piave[/wiki] (the station itself is called “San Donà di Piave - Jesolo” but it’s 25 km away from the beach) where you should get a bus.

  • filter_dramaGet around
    You will basically walk from your accommodation to the beach which can be literally few metres away if you’re in one of the beachfront hotels. Then you will walk along Via Bafile, the main street, which starts at Piazza Marconi and continues after Piazza Nember. The street is named after Andrea Bafile, an Italian soldier and hero of the First World War who died after rescuing a fellow soldier in Cortellazzo. The street changes name after the piazzas: it is named “Via Bafile” from Piazza Marconi to Piazza Mazzini; then it is called Via Silvio Trentin until Piazza Aurora; then it changes again to Via Ugo Foscolo until the tiny Piazza Marina; then it is called Via Verdi until Piazza Nember where it changes again in Via dei Mille until its end which is very close. After that there’s the last part of the road leading to Piazzetta faro, the beach at the end of the river Sile, the famous Camping International, the Porto Turistico and the Terrazzamare Teatrobar, which is probably the best place for the night time with spectacular views of the river, the sea and the lighthouse. The whole Via Bafile, with its many names, from May to September is pedestrian 20:00-06:00 and it is packed with people. In the same period there is another pedestrian way at night between Piazza Milano and Piazza Torino in Lido Est.

    Please note that many residents refer to this long street simply as Via Bafile, and if they have to indicate a particular place they will make reference to the piazzas instead.

    The whole Via Bafile has a bike path on its side and moving around with bicycles is really handy. Some hotels have their own bike-rental service, otherwise you can find many around the main street. Pay attention with your bicycle if you’re going on Via Bafile at night as it can be really crowded at least until midnight.

    ATVO is the local bus company and there are many buses connecting all parts of the Lido. ATVO buses don’t go on Via Bafile but on its parallel Via Aquileia. Anyway it is quite easy to get a citymap at the bus station or at the tourist offices and hotel information offices.

    From July 2015 there's also the new [url=http://www.city-sightseeing.it/eng/city_sightseeing_jesolo.htm]Jesolo City Sightseeing bus[/url]. Departing from the ATVO bus station, 9 stops along the route on Jesolo's points of interests.
  • filter_dramaSee
    Jesolo Paese hasn’t much to offer apart from some shops and the green area around the City Hall. There is a local market every friday in Piazza Kennedy, few minutes walking from Jesolo Paese bus stop. Check for shuttle services run by ATVO from Jesolo Lido bus station. An interesting thing is found in Via Antiche Mura and it’s the last part of a palaeo-Christian church which dates back to the Fourth century. It is said it was destroyed by Attila and the Huns but there’s no evidence about it. There are also plans to create a sort of archeological-historical park around here but there hasn’t been any confirmation yet.

    Jesolo Lido in the colder seasons is almost a dead town, with nearly every hotel closed or open just for a few days during New Years Eve, or Carnival and Easter. Also many shops, bars and restaurants are closed from October/November until April. In springtime and summer the town changes completely: bars, restaurants, shops and more are opened usually until late September.

    In the past decade Jesolo has gone through major developments, with more attractions and events spread through the year and especially in the summertime. Some of these new attractions are great for the kids but even adults can have a lot of fun.

    * This museum features an impressive collection of stuffed animals, most of them coming from the private collection of local Pietro Sassaro.

    * This area of the Tropicarium Park is focused on sharks and crocodiles.

    * This aquarium is part of the Sea Life chain and it opened in 2011. Along the many areas you will see thousands of sea creatures from every part of the planet. Kids will love it. It also has a gift-shop.

    * The Tropicarium Park is one of the best attractions in Jesolo Lido. It features more than 400 animals like reptiles and primates. It also gives access to the ‘Predators’ exhibition (in the Shark Expo area) and the ‘Killer Animals’ exhibition where you will be able to see sharks, crocodiles and other dangerous and rare animals. Tropicarium has recently obtained more rooms in Pala Arrex, so there will probably be more exhibitions.

    * Focused on the most famous murders and serial killers of the world.
  • filter_dramaDo
    Enjoy the sea, the sun and the beach. Jesolo also offers many possibilities and facilities for those who love golf, tennis, horseriding and more.

    • Discos

      Jesolo has a long history of discos, some of them among the most famous in Italy. However, due to recent development in the city some of the historical ones have closed and reconverted in holiday apartments and other buildings. Jesolo Lido used to have more than 20 discos, but today only a few remain but they are still quite enjoyable.

    • Fast food

Duran Duran, Tiesto and Fatboy Slim among the others. Gets packed in the weekend and it is quite expensive. If you’re not into this then you might consider coming here late afternoon to enjoy a spritz watching the river, the sea and lighthouse at sunset in a very chilled out atmosphere. Now run by the same team of Il Muretto.

  • filter_dramaStay safe
    Jesolo is overall a safe place, although you might encounter unpleasant situations. Just use your common sense and follow basic rules. Do not leave anything valuable inside your car, or at least don’t leave anything clearly visible from the outside. Do not walk in poorly lit areas late at night and after midnight avoid the beach as there have been episodes of smugglers and violent crimes. Please note that the beach is patrolled by private security agencies: behave yourself, do not sit on sunchairs or sunbeds as they are property of hotels and residences.
    During the day, on the beach, you might be approached by people (mostly Asians) offering massages or other services: do not accept as this is an illegal activity and if caught you will be fined up to 2500€. Same apply if you get caught buying things from hawkers.
    You will see hawkers (mostly from Indian region and China) scattered along the main street at night, they will try to sell you roses, toys and other stuff. Kindly refuse or be sure they won’t leave you alone. If you spend a night in a bar you will easily see the same hawker 4 or 5 times: even if you refused the first time he will not stop asking you to buy something.

    If you come from a cold country and you’re not used to get tanned, do always use a sunscreen cream to avoid burnings, especially recommended for kids. Try to avoid the beach in the hottest hours (Noon - 4PM). You can get sunscreen creams in many places, but asking a pharmacy is way better as they sell better products.
