Burano cruise port guide
Picturesque Burano is known for its brightly colored fishermen's houses and its casual eateries serving seafood from the lagoon. The Museo del Merletto has exhibits on the development of lace-making in the area, and shops sell lace products like linens and clothes, as well as the local butter cookies called "bussolai buranei." The ancient Chiesa di San Martino has a leaning 17th-century bell tower.
About Burano
Burano is a small island in the Venetian Lagoon, part of the UNESCO World Heritage site of Venice and its Lagoon, famous for its brightly painted fishermen's houses and traditional lacemaking. Cruise passengers visiting Venice often include Burano as a vaporetto day trip from the main island.
The brightly painted fishermen's cottages along Burano's canals make it one of the most photogenic locations in all of Italy. Traditional lacemaking is the island's other claim to fame. Nearby Murano is world-famous for its high-quality glass shops and workshops; Torcello, a short vaporetto hop away, is sparsely populated and offers Byzantine mosaics in the Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta and a unique window into the early lagoon world.
