Rank : 8.7 (average on 3 votes)

Coordinates : 41.866618, 15.350457 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Essentially landscaped subjects such as the eponymous Lagoon, the long lake, the characteristic boats called by the local "sandals" and the old town. There is also a good variety of flora and fauna. Not far away, going east, you can find the so-called Eastern Sacca, area protected by the Gargano National Park.

Recommended equipment : You can't miss the tripod for long exposure photos, both today and at night. The famous walkway allows you to reach the interior of the lake and allows you to photograph the city. In addition, in evenings in clear skies, it offers you an excellent opportunity to photograph the stars being a relatively unlit area, especially if you reach the interior of the lake. A telephoto lens can perhaps be useful for photographing some glimpses of the city, seagulls and other varieties of birds such as black swans and sometimes even flamingos.

Best months : Possible to take photos all year round, very rarely the city is covered with snow as the nearby lake causes the temperature to be higher than usual even in cold winters and those few times it snows, does not last long.

How to get there : You get there very easily via the A14 motorway at the LESINA exit - IMPERIAL POGY. Alternatively also via SS16 State Road.

Visits : Entry into the city is free of constraints, there are no ZTL or the like except sometimes of the road closures of the center during Sundays. In August the road of the long lake becomes during the pedestrian aera day. There is a small institution called the Visitor Center. It allows you to see up close the marine species that live in the lagoon and more. There are no paid parking spaces, you can leave the car where you want.
