Summer holidays Italy

Summer holidays in Italy are extremely popular, thanks, in part, to the Amalfi Coast, the Adriatic, and the Venetian Riviera. You can bask in the sunshine in one of the coastal resorts and enjoy miles of golden sand beaches or visit the stunning island of Sardinia with its white sand beaches and clear turquoise sea.

The resort of Limone is ideal for those who want to get away from it all and just relax. The resort hosts a number of cafes on the lake, Italian restaurants and many shops offering quality goods at value prices.

Close to Venice is Lido di Jesolo, which offers superb beaches, bars, cafes and vibrant nightlife in contrast with rich history and historical sites. A magnet for tourism, this purpose built resort attracts more than 400,000 people to its sunny shores every year.

The area of Lake Garda is another attractive region. Set around a series of huge, clear water lakes and sprinkled with beautifully sculpted buildings, it is a haven for yacht and watersports enthusiasts. In Bardolino, you can swim in the lake or try out some fishing. There is also a water-ski school, motorboats and sailing boats for hire or you can take out pedaloes if you prefer to explore the lake at a more leisurely pace.
