Parking in Parco San Giuliano

The lagoon habitat

Parco San Giuliano, opened in 2003, and is of great importance from a natural point of view. With its 700 hectares it represents an enormous project to recover and safeguard the lagoon’s habitat, its fauna and flora. Where the park stands today was entirely marshland only two decades ago, used as landfill for the municipality and industrial waste sludge.

Parco San Giuliano is great for long walks or cycling on its lengthy bicycle path, especially if you want to enjoy a different point of view of the lagoon. Immediately in front of the park and off the coast, you can see the small island of San Giuliano, suggestive to photograph even if it is completely uninhabited and free from any buildings. The park also offers numerous Picnic Areas, a sports field and a skating ring. Moreover, the park hosts various significant events throughout the year, one example is the Heineken Jammin' Festival. In summer, one leg of the Venice Marathon is held here, and the so-called and unique Festa del Vento, where every first weekend of June, the park hosts an international kite rally.

Finding a parking space can be especially difficult in these times of the year, when a lot of people visit Mestre and Parco di San Giuliano. Book it in advance with Parclick and park on your arrival without any problems!
