Giudecca is an island in the Venetian Lagoon, located in northern Italy. It is part of the sestiere of Dorsoduro and is a locality of the comune of Venice. The island has a long dock and is known for its churches, including the Palladio-designed Il Redentore. Giudecca was historically an area of large palaces with gardens and has been converted into a quiet residential area with some chic apartments and exclusive houses. The island is also home to the famous five-star Cipriani hotel with large private gardens and a salt-water pool. Visitors can explore the island's fondamenta, a long pedestrian quay running along the Venice-facing side, and visit the parish Church of Sant'Eufemia and the Church of the Most Holy Redeemer

Activities: We strolled along the Giudecca's Promenade on our first evening. We also stopped at Riva93 Bar & Bistrot, where we had a shady sidewalk table with views of the lagoon and the city
Highlights: The Giudecca is a quieter part of town, especially in August when the Venetians go on vacation. We enjoyed the views from the Promenade and the delicious food and drinks at Riva93 Bar & Bistrot ✨
