About Caorle
Caorle
Caorle is a pleasant and popular seaside resort in the Veneto region of Italy, north of Venice. It has large beaches on the Adriatic, a pretty and colourful historic centre, and fascinating fishing traditions which can be glimpsed on an excursion along the waterways of Caorle's lagoon.
Caorle is very much geared up for summer beach tourism; with a population of 12,000, the town boasts 50,000 beds for holidaymakers. Many of these come from Austria and Germany, so German as well as English is widely used in local tourist businesses. If you prefer to avoid the crowds, late spring or early summer (May-June) is the ideal time. Autumn is quieter too, though you may find the lagoon's mosquitos out in force. Caorle is pronounced with the stress on the first of three syllables. It is not far from the modern, better-known resort Lido di Jesolo.
Tourist sights
Caorle doesn't have any great tourist sights or itineraries; this is the kind of resort where visitors can concentrate on the important holiday activities of strolling, relaxing on the beach and whiling away the time at cafe tables. That's not to say that Caorle is a bland modern resort, though. The historic centre, just behind the seafront, is charming and full of character, with colourful painted houses and picturesque little squares and alleyways. There is a central shopping street, Via Rio Terrà (a former canal), which is largely pedestrianised, where you can find everyday shops as well as beachwear, postcards and ice creams. Hidden away in little courtyards are pretty cafes and restaurants; glancing through gaps in brightly-painted houses you'll see comfortable scenes such as couples eating at a pizzeria, comfortable outdoor bar tables under vine-covered trellises, a local leaning a bicycle against a painted wall.
Before it was a holiday resort, Caorle was a fishing port, and although tourism is now the most visible business here, fishing is still important. The fishermen's port, Porto Peschereccio, behind the town centre, is lined with working sea-going fishing boats.
Caorle's historic centre is clustered on a small bulging promontory, with long wide beaches either side. The heart of town is Piazza Vescovado, site of the town's cathedral, the Duomo or Cattedrale di Santo Stefano. The cathedral is a fine ancient building dating from the eleventh century, though heavily restored. Inside the church is a calm aura of antiquity. Stone and brick columns alternate either side of the nave, and a fragment of early-Christian sculpted marble is incorporated into the modern pulpit. Don't miss the rather endearing fresco of Santa Lucia, presenting her eyes on a plate, surrounded by quaintly-painted scenes from the saint's life. An equally charming wooden statue of San Rocco stands near the door, proudly displaying his own saintly attributes of a plague sore on the thigh and a little dog. The cathedral's other precious art includes a fifteenth-century wooden crucifix and a 'Pala d'Oro' screen of silver and gold displayed behind the altar. Alongside the building is one of the town's symbols, its remarkable campanile (belltower). This tall, round, thin tower was possibly built as a watchtower; the views from the top must be tremendous. The upper part of the tower seems to be supported miraculously by a fine, delicate arched loggia.
Not content with the historic cathedral, Caorle has another, even more photogenic church. The eighteenth-century Santuario della Madonna dell'Angelo sits right on the tip of the promontory with a campanile that doubles as a lighthouse, looking masterfully out over the Adriatic and seeming to hover between the sea and the fishing boats, the lines of beach sunloungers and row of hotels along the beach beyond.
The historic centre and seafront promenade are lovely places to stroll, or sit and rest with a drink or ice cream. There's a good choice of places to do this; although it can be hard choosing between the charm of the inland streets, and a balcony seat overlooking the sea.
