Lignano Summer Camp

Lignano is a peninsula south of Fruili situated between Venice and Trieste. This popular resort destination offers over 8 km of fine sandy beaches and large shady pine woods. The peninsula is divided into three distinct areas: Lignano Sabbiadoro, Lignano Pineta and Lignano Riviera. Lignano Sabbiadoro is a lively center that is the heart of everyday entertainment with fine shops, hotels/villas, apartments, restaurants and more. Lignano Pineta, in contrast, is peaceful and a place where one will find villas and hotels almost hidden amidst the vegetation of the pine woods and the sand dunes. Lastly, Lignano Riviera, with a new boat marina offers the peaceful holiday spas, the Zoo Park Punta Verde and an 18 hole golf course. Lignano’s mild climate, golden stretch of beach, tranquil pinewoods and active, safe city center makes this an excellent environment for teens to learn and have fun!
