MOORING When you’re near Venice, you can only moor in designated public mooring places. Space is quite limited, especially in the busy summer season. Take a water taxi (vaporetto) to your tourist destination in the Venetian Lagoon instead of hassling over a place to park the boat. When travelling from Casale, exclusive private moorings are available for Le Boat customers. These moorings are located on Mazzorbo (Burano), Vignole (for Venice) and in Chioggia - areas which are well connected with the public transport (the famous water bus called Vaporetto) to help you visit central venice and all the surrounding islands. They do not have access to water or shore power and availability is limited - they are allocated on a first-come-first- serve basis. This fee will be automatically added, as a cost, to your Italy booking and is included in the prices quoted on our website when applicable. In the Friuli region from our base in Precenicco, you’ll find a wider selection of moorings. WATER You will need to fill up your water tank once or twice during the course of a week. There are many ports/marinas that will allow you to fill your tank for a charge, or will be included in an overnight mooring fee.
