Venice, Marina Vento di Venezia

Vento di Venezia sits right in the Venetian Lagoon, putting you just a short boat ride from the canals and piazzas of Venice itself. The marina handles vessels from 8 to 60 metres and comes with on-site car parking, so you can easily swap between boat and land life. It's one of those rare spots where the setting — surrounded by lagoon water with the Venice skyline in the distance — does most of the work.
