Just a short boat ride from Venice, Sant’Erasmo feels like the countryside of the lagoon; quiet, green, and unhurried. The island is covered with vineyards, orchards, and vegetable gardens, making it perfect for long walks, cycling, or even a dip at its small beach. Stop by the Torre Massimiliana, a historic fort now hosting art events, or the Church of Cristo Re for a glimpse into local history. Don’t miss I Sapori di Sant’Erasmo for authentic organic produce, and a glass of Orto — the 18th-century wine once enjoyed by the Doge and Casanova.
