The agriturismo “da Scarpa”, a family-run inn, was born in 1985 while the farm was set up in the early ‘60s, both run by Bruno, Edda and their sons. Since the early years of the new millennium the “Locanda da Scarpa” and the farm have been owned by brothers Massimo and Roberto. The union between horticultural farm and traditional Venetian cuisine turned out to be an excellent choice. The recent opening of the “Agricampeggio da Scarpa” is the latest challenge of Scarpa family, whose aim is to combine love for the land with warm hospitality for tourists.
The agricampeggio is located in the peninsula of Cavallino-Treporti. The sandy peninsula extends for 15 km between the Adriatic Sea and the Venetian lagoon. Golden beaches, dunes and pinewoods in the South-East and the lagoon in the North makes it one of the greatest “green tourism” area in Europe.

Many events take place here during the summer and the most attractive is “Beach on fire”, at the end of August, a wonderful fireworks show that enchants adults and children , made of astonishing lights and sparkling colors reflecting on the sea.
The agricampeggio is 500 m ca. far from the sea. The public beach has free lifeguard service and free parking for cars and bikes. Fine sand and shallow sea are perfect for children of all ages. Moreover Cavallino-Treporti holds the “Blue Flag” for its beaches, recognized by FEE (Foundation for Environmental Education), that is a guarantee for the quality of the sea water and the clean sand.
The beautiful city of Venice is just 40 minutes far from our camping site: ships leave every 30 minutes from Punta Sabbioni pier, that is 1200 m away from here. From the same dock you can reach also the well-known islands of Burano (30’), Murano (60’) and Torcello (35’).
