Restaurants Marano Lagunare

Battello Santa Maria Ristorante Navigante

Joining as much as possible the local resources related to the environment, the culture and the gastronomy in which people can fully enjoy the charm of our region and at the end of day visitors can realize they have fallen in love with Friuli Venezia Giulia.

To do this, it is enough to look into our hearts and seek a common passion: THE SEA.



From the sea, of course, we pass to a means that fulfills all the characteristics to be as versatile as possible, from the sea to the lagoons, to rivers offering passengers all the comforts of a serene and safe navigation, combining the pleasures of sailing, the pleasures of a good table, rediscovering on board the flavors of the ancient recipes of Marano.

The idea stems from two young people of Marano that, given the growing development of tourism in the region and the crisis that interested in the fisheries sector, decided, instead, to embark on this adventure, strong of the unique quality of the service they are going to offer, having, in the course of their lives, accumulated considerable experience both in the field of food service and in tourism.



From an accurate research on the yachting market and, after a careful technical assessment environment, the basic features that the ship had to meet were especially low draught and a high capacity of seating, for this, research was quite challenging, but not without effort, we got a means that gave great freedom of movement both along the lagoon canals and rivers and along the sea coast in compliance with all safety standards for both people on board and for the issue of water pollution.



Another factor to remember was the kitchen: it had to be practical and functional but at the same time small and non–invasive for the passenger, for this, the kitchen was arranged at the extreme bow and equipped with an aspiration system worthy of the finest restaurants.



To mark with a pencil on the chart the way that the ship will have to go, is a gesture that every sailor does with respect and devotion. That gesture identifies the exact moment when you will leave the earth with its safety and entrust yourself to the ship and the sea, completely. The choice of the route to follow is dictated by the research of emotions and pleasures that the lagoon can give, accompanied by that attentive technical evaluation that a safe navigation requires. It is with this requisites that Commander Nico offers three itineraries that can make you live wonderful emotions, safely enjoying the relaxing surroundings:

ITINERARY The nature of the Stella

ITINERARY The channels of History

ITINERARY Sailing to the Island of the Sun

All of these routes include navigation along the Venetian coast, from the Roman Empire to the Republic of Venice. The Port of departure is usually Marano Lagunare, but we can decide together an alternate route to satisfy your demand. The boarding point of Marano Lagunare is in Cristoforo Colombo square, also known by the Marano people as the "Door of the Sea". Here, since ancient times, ships arrived with goods and vessels, carrying their catch in this square at the Old Fish Market, a place to meet and talk among seafarers.

Trattoria Barcaneta

The chef offers completely different dishes with a contrast of colors on your plate, care in the presentation, delicacy in the courses. So, no garlic, no chilli, no sauces: authentic flavors, small samples of the sea in your plate.

Barcaneta is a lovely trattoria overlooking the square in Marano. The cuisine offered is varied and creative, composed mainly of fish specialties, fresh every day.

You will always find our chef in the dining room, to understand the food tastes of the customers and explain the composition of the dishes!

Beside the traditional cuisine, the chef of course, offers a range of culinary variations, designed to whet even the more superfine palates.

The rotation and the variation of our dishes is practically complete! Every day we offer different dishes and specialties, as we strictly follow the availability of the Marano fish market.

Among our permanent specialties, we remind the tasting of five starters, always followed by a first or a second course, and a dessert, rigorously prepared and cooked in the house!

The restaurant also offers a wine list of local white wines carefully selected!
