Acqua Alta
"Acqua alta" (High Tides) is a recurrent seasonal natural phenomenon in Venice.
Acqua Alta is more likely to occur during the Autumn and Winter months and may cause some of the calle and piazze to flood. Taken in stride it is a charming time to visit Venice - the beauty of the city's monuments are reflected in the flood waters, locals don their rubber boots and go about their day to day activities, and children love playing in the water. The city is well prepared for the flooding. The main pedestrian routes are set up with special walkways allowing most parts of Venice to be reached without getting your feet wet. A 48 hour tidal forecast indicating the expected tide highs is supplied each day by the city authorities.
Less than 80 cms is a normal tide with no flooding. A tide above 100cm will cause minor flooding, whilst tides above 120 cm will begin to cause extensive flooding.
Please contact the hotel should you require any further information.
