Easter in Lignano: what to do and what’s on

Cycling excursions

It takes very little to explore Lignano and its surroundings in a slow and sustainable way: a bicycle (or an e-bike for those who prefer longer rides with less effort) is all you need. You can cycle around Lignano along the seafront and the lagoon, or reach nearby Bibione by taking the X River boat crossing.

If you're a true sports enthusiast and want to cover more kilometers, you can ride to Marano Lagunare, Portogruaro, or Concordia Sagittaria.

Use our geolocated maps with all the routes we have traced in and around Lignano. And if you need to rent a bike, you can visit our Bike Point or check out Lignano’s bike rental options.

Kitesurfing and SUP excursions

SUP (Stand Up Paddleboarding) is the ideal way to enjoy the beauty of the lagoon environment in a slow and relaxing way at Easter. Among the various excursions organized by Somewheretours, we recommend personalized SUP outings between the sea and the lagoon. For those looking for a more adrenaline-pumping activity, kitesurfing is a great option! The A.S.D. Tiliaventum association takes kitesurfers to the islands near the Red Lighthouse, where they can practice freely.

Canoe excursions to Bilancia di Bepi

Is kitesurfing too extreme for you? Then we suggest a slow-paced experience suitable for everyone: visit Bilancia di Bepi, an ancient fishermen’s hut in the lagoon, and explore the area by canoe.

Daniele, the owner, will guide you through the canals, where you can paddle while observing aquatic birds, lagoon flora, and traditional fishermen’s huts. At the end of the excursion, you’ll get to see a fishing net in action and taste freshly caught fried fish.

Boat trips in the lagoon

Boat excursions in the lagoon are perfect for families. Many operators, mainly departing from the Old Port Marina in Lignano Sabbiadoro, offer trips through the Marano Lagoon, past the fishermen’s huts, along the Stella River, and to the islands of Lignano. Some tours even reach Grado and Marano by sea.

On certain trips, you can enjoy a seafood lunch onboard, while on others, you may visit an authentic fishermen’s hut. Contact individual operators for availability and conditions.

Visits to inland farms and wineries

The inland of Lignano Sabbiadoro is dotted with numerous wineries and farms, not only producing wine but also growing fruits and vegetables, as well as agritourisms and restaurants that promote local flavors and products.

You can consult the Wine and Flavors Route map of the Riviera Friulana to find participating farms that offer guided tours or direct purchases and tastings of local products. This sounds like a perfect idea for a day trip from Lignano at Easter, don’t you think?

Shopping

Do you love shopping and want to spend a few hours browsing and indulging in some retail therapy? At Easter, the shops in Lignano Sabbiadoro are already open, so you can enjoy a stroll along Sabbiadoro’s pedestrian street or through the Pinewood train area, admiring window displays and treating yourself to some shopping.

Less than an hour’s drive from Lignano Sabbiadoro, you can also find other important shopping destinations: the outlets in Noventa di Piave and Palmanova or the historic centers of Portogruaro, Pordenone, and Udine, where you can combine sightseeing with shopping before returning to Lignano for dinner.

Amusement parks

While Easter might not yet bring the right weather for enjoying the waterslides at Aquasplash water park, family fun is still guaranteed at other amusement parks open at Easter in Lignano, such as Parco Junior and Parco Zoo Punta Verde.

Parco Junior’s attractions delight young visitors, who can jump on inflatables, dive into ball pits, walk adventure trails, drive electric cars, sail on giant swan boats, and much more. Meanwhile, at Parco Zoo, the stars of the show are the animals! Both adults and children will enjoy observing them in their habitats, and they might even participate in special close-up encounters scheduled on specific days and times.

Nightlife

For those eager to stay out late and get a taste of the approaching summer, Easter marks the reopening of Lignano’s main nightclubs and bars, where you can enjoy the nightlife with DJ music and drinks.

The iconic Tenda Bar in Pineta, along with the nightclubs Mr. Charlie and Ca’ Margherita, are just a few of the well-known names, but you can find the full list of Lignano’s nightlife venues on our website.

Relaxation

If sports and excursions sound like a great idea but only when paired with some well-deserved relaxation, we have suggestions for that too. The first tip is to book a hotel in Lignano with a wellness center, so after a day of exploring, you can unwind in the sauna and Turkish baths before dinner. Some hotels even allow non-guests to access their wellness areas.

Additionally, in just 15 minutes by car, you can reach the nearby Bibione Thermal Baths, where you can pamper yourself in heated indoor pools and a large wellness area.
