Wonderful and very romantic place. Not exactly a beach, excellent spot for kite surfing.
Beautiful to reach on foot or by bike better if Gravel.
Boschettona beach, an oasis in which to get lost 😎⛱️
The only outlet to the sea of the Province of Padua is located in the Municipality of Codevigo - institutional page, just 5/6 kilometers from the Casoni della Fogolana! Incredible, isn't it? 😍The name Boschettona derives from the past presence of plants and trees to form a forest, which extended for an area of almost 70 fields, when the lagoon was somewhat backward.
The forest was cut in the early twentieth century and the current extension of the lagoon was started following the flood of 1966.In 1987 the South Lagoon, the Millecampi Valley and the Boschettona Beach were included in the "Venice and its Lagoon" list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.Today the Boschettona beach has been revalued with the construction of a pier and a kiosk, the latter lost after a fire in February.
The beach is also a destination:
☀️ Tourist, mainly of locals who love to spend the summer days by the lagoon;
☀️ Photographic, thanks to the ever increasing knowledge of locations via Instagram and the hashtag #spiaggiadellaboschettona;
☀️ Sports activities such as canoeing, kitesurfing, windsurfing and mountain bike and 3 gravelfacebook.com/pages/Spiaggia-della-Boschettona/777124895650142This is a video showing the area we are talking about.

The Boschettona beach is the only existing beach in the province of Padua and represents the only real outlet to the sea. La Boschettona is located in the southeastern part of the province, within the Municipality of Codevigo, in the area of the Millecampi Valley. These once unhealthy areas were formed after the floods resulting from the collision between the rivers flowing into the lagoon and the sea in the Chioggia area and subsequently reclaimed.
