Transiting through the islands, going or returning, we will pass through the island of Sant Erasmo, where there are the typical products of the land, the vegetables of the Venice lagoon
We will only pass next to Mazzorbo, depending on the tour we take, towards Torcello. It is famous for its native vines, and if we have time we stop for a glass of wine...the salt marshes and numerous birds, including pink flamingos

The shops are PRE-SELECTED because in each of them, the history of the island and its traditions will be told.
