We like to see you exploring, coming back in the evening with eyes full of wonder and stories to tell, just as a friend visiting us for the first time would.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today we\u2019d like to let you in on a secret that will allow you to experience the area through the eyes of those who love it: the <strong>Passi Barca<\/strong> in our lagoon. Picture the scene: leave your car behind in our private car park, hop on one of our bikes and let yourself be ferried from one bank to the other, where nature runs wild and time seems to stand still.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are the three boat trips we recommend you try for an unforgettable day out.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. The Barca di Falconera Pass: the gateway to Vallevecchia<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the perfect route for our \u2018Weekend Explorers\u2019 or for families looking for a touch of adventure in unspoilt nature. It takes just a few minutes\u2019 cycle from the hotel to reach the end of Levante, in the village of Falconera. There, you\u2019ll find the lagoon ferry waiting to take you directly to Vallevecchia and the stunning Brussa beach.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Timetable:<\/strong> Departures from Falconera: 9.00\u201312.00 and 15.00\u201318.00. Return journeys from Vallevecchia: 9.30\u201312.15 and 15.30\u201318.15.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Days:<\/strong> Every day from 23 May to 20 September. If you\u2019re visiting us in autumn (perhaps for the <em>Half Marathon<\/em> in October), the service is available at weekends and on public holidays until 20 October.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> Just \u20ac3 for a single journey, \u20ac5 for a return. Bike transport is already included. Booking? Not needed \u2013 adventures are best when they\u2019re spontaneous!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. The Barca di San Gaetano Pass: a journey through history (and eco-sustainability)<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re looking for a more intimate experience, this route will have you falling in love with it. You\u2019ll board a fully electric boat that connects the wonderful Isola dei Pescatori in Caorle (with its historic huts made of marsh reeds) to the small village of San Gaetano, gliding gently along the River Lemene. A real journey back in time.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Timetable &amp; Frequency:<\/strong> Departures are frequent, approximately every 30 minutes, between 9.00 and 12.00 and 15.00 and 18.00.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Days:<\/strong> Open from Friday to Sunday (and on public holidays) from 22 May to 17 September, and then at weekends until the end of the month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> Just \u20ac2 one way, \u20ac3 return (bike included, no booking required).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. The Long Route: from Caorle to Bibione Pineda<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This route is a favourite with our \u201cExplorer Cyclists\u201d and with anyone who wants to spend a whole day actively exploring<sup><\/sup>. It\u2019s a proper scheduled service across the lagoon, linking Caorle to Bibione Pineda<sup><\/sup>. The real insider\u2019s tip? You can ask for a stop on request right at the Vallevecchia Museum, so you can visit the environmental centre before continuing on your way<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fixed timetable:<\/strong> Departures from Caorle are at 08:15 or 15:15. Return journeys from Bibione are at 09:40, 10:50, 16:40 or 17:50.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cost &amp; Booking:<\/strong> This route is more exclusive: the cost is \u20ac12 (\u20ac18 return), whilst for Vallevecchia it is \u20ac8 (children under 6 travel free). <em>Please note:<\/em> bookings are compulsory for this route (you can book at book.bluest.eu or by contacting us).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Days:<\/strong> Every day from 9 July to 20 September, then at weekends only until 25 October.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A tip from the Expert Friend \u2615<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Services in the lagoon strictly follow the rhythms and whims of nature. In the event of bad weather or unusual tides, routes may be subject to change<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before you put on your helmet and hop on your bike, pop round to reception to see us: we\u2019ll check the timetables together in real time over a nice cup of coffee, and point out the most picturesque spots on the map where you can snap a photo at sunset or stop for a proper plate of mixed fried seafood.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are you already dreaming of the wind in your hair and the scent of the lagoon? Discover the routes and book your room for your next weekend on two wheels.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember: at L\u2019Orologio, you arrive as a guest and leave as a friend<sup><\/sup>.<\/p>\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery .kb-gallery-type-masonry.kb-gallery-id-50537_f567ec-17{margin:-5px;}.kb-gallery-type-masonry.kb-gallery-id-50537_f567ec-17 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item{padding:5px;}.kb-gallery-id-50537_f567ec-17 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-50537_f567ec-17 .kb-slide-item .kb-gal-image-radius img{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;;}<\/style><div class=\"kb-gallery-wrap-id-50537_f567ec-17 alignnone wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery\"><ul class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-non-static kb-gallery-type-masonry kb-masonry-init kb-gallery-id-50537_f567ec-17 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-item-selector=\".kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\" data-columns-xxl=\"3\" data-columns-xl=\"3\" data-columns-md=\"3\" data-columns-sm=\"2\" data-columns-xs=\"1\" data-columns-ss=\"1\"><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:1024px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic\" style=\"padding-bottom:49%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2-1024x509.png\" width=\"1024\" height=\"509\" alt=\"Mappa dei passi barca a Caorle per escursioni in bicicletta nella laguna\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2.png\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2.png\" data-id=\"50548\" class=\"wp-image-50548\" title=\"Hotel Caorle All&#039;Orologio\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2-1024x509.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2-768x382.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-17-alle-13.42.24-2.png 1232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><li class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\" style=\"max-width:1024px;\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain kadence-blocks-gallery-intrinsic\" style=\"padding-bottom:66%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone-1024x683.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" alt=\"Ospiti dell&#039;Hotel All&#039;Orologio di Caorle durante un&#039;escursione in bicicletta nella laguna\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone.jpg\" data-id=\"50559\" class=\"wp-image-50559\" title=\"Hotel Caorle All&#039;Orologio\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hotelorologiocaorle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Vallevecchia-vista-drone.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know us: at the Hotel All\u2019Orologio, we\u2019re not really fans of \u2018mass-produced\u2019 holidays \u2013 those standardised ones where you just go round in a loop between your room, your beach umbrella and the tourist restaurant.
