      I only know about Grado as Trieste is my original hometown and Grado is a popular day trip. Or in my case during a heatwave, a place to stay in an airconditioned hotel! There's a few different beach towns between Venice and Trieste, I'll eventually get around to visiting a few different ones. From the UK, Ryanair fly to Trieste Airport and that's quite close to Grado, either by car or bus. The train only goes to Cervignano (one stop from the airport) . and then a bus to Grado. Thanks for watching!

    Beautiful island and a lovely beach. All beaches in the US too are public. But, sometimes the landowners can make it difficult to access them! The Basilica ruins were interesting to see. Would have loved to attend Mass in the slightly newer one! Beautiful tour amongst the canals. Thanks so much for showing us around.

      The ruins of the basilica were interesting as they were only discovered in 1905 where the area was dug up to make the square, that's Europe for you! Dig a bit and you'll find the ruins of something even older! Mass in the St Eufemia church was really lovely as a male choir sang most of it until the end when the whole congregation sang the song about the fishermen of the sea, it was very moving.

    Italy is incredibly beautiful. We visited Rome and Venice, and planning to visit more over there. Thanks for this video. Good luck to your channel.

      Italy has so many different places to see, some of the smaller towns are nicer as there are fewer and in some cases no tourists. Thanks for watching!

    I've not heard of Grado before but it certainly looks like a lovely place to visit for a bit of relaxation and to enjoy the beach. Its town has a beautiful vibe too. I love seeing all of the different boats coming and going.

      Grado is really nice, people mainly go there for its beaches, there's another longer stretch of beach past the promenade. I like to wander around (unless it's very hot!) in the old part of Grado during the day as in the evening everyone is out and about.

    Great informative tour, it looks so beautiful, I would love to ride that ferry, looks a lovely beach and nice that you can hire sun loungers 😃Loved the look around the streets, the buildings are adorable and I love the name Fish Market St :) the flowers outside of the houses were so pretty and I liked the canal area. The remains of the Basilica were good to see as well, so much history there and that 6th century church was beautiful that you attended mass at. This is a place that we as a family would love and your showed it off so well with your presentation and music 👍~ Anna

      The sun lounge hire does amuse me once I found out you do it all online! You choose which beach, what type you want, with or without umbrella and there's even the more expensive cabanas on offer. Some people really do take their beach vacations seriously, we had to go to the public beach and just take a claim with our beach towels! It's very much a family beach holiday location, lots of people in Trieste own appartments in Grado they use for the summer months.

      @@theresabigwideworld2632 That's brilliant haha we don't have that on our Welsh beaches ! Yesterday we were out sunbathing on one that was packed and we just came and went. It would have been nice to have loungers and brolleys ready there for us though 🌞

    I had to google this place as I had not heard of it. I am not really one for lying on a beach but the old town looked pleasant enough. The long causeway from the direction of Aquileia also caught my eye as an interesting route to take. I am keen to get back to the area especially after seeing some of your videos as well as having watched the TV series "La Porta Rossa". Hope you have a great week.

      Grado is very small but worth seeing as a day trip included with visiting Aquileia, it's quite scenic going across the lagoon. Grado was originally established in Roman times as the first port for ships heading up to Aquileia. I've not heard of the TV series 'La Porta Rossa' so I'll try and see if I can find it.
