Sorted by popularity:

What's the Weather Like in Venice in July

July is the hottest month of the year in Venice and also the busiest for tourist season (April - October). Venice is a famously expensive city and prices for accommodation and food are especially high at this time of year.

Temperature

The average temperature reaches a high of a very nice 28°C (that's about 82°F), and only dips to lows of 18°C (about 64°F) in the evenings. However due to the high temperatures and long hours of sunshine you should take precautions to avoid sunburn or sunstroke. Always wear sunscreen with a high SPF and seek shelter during the hottest parts of the day.

The temperature over the month varies only slightly, getting a bit hotter as the month passes. July 1 has an average of 22°C (72°F), with highs of 26°C (80°F) and lows of 18°C (65°F). 

By mid-July, averages rise up to 23°C (74°F), highs of 27°C (82°F) and lows of 18°C (66°F). By the end of the month, averages are still 23°C (74°F), highs 28°C (83°F) and lows of 19°C (67°F).

The longest day of the month is July 1 with 15:37 hours of sunlight and the shortest day is July 31 with 14:46 hours. Light clothing such as t-shirts, shorts and sandals are recommended for daytime wear, though if you are eating out in the evening, nice casual or formal is a better bet.

The average sea temperature is 25°C (about 77°F) so you can head down to the beaches like Lido or up to Lake Garda near Verona and enjoy the water.

Beaches for July for Venice

Rosolina Beach

Venice is not well-renowned for its beaches, but you may find a few if you're on the lookout. Rosolina Beach is 8 kilometres long and 100 metres. On weekends in July it can get rather crowded, but the size makes up for that. Spend the afternoon swimming, sunbathing, bicycling or any number of water activities. Rosolina is 60 kilometres from Venice, easily reached by bus.

Restaurants and Bars for Venice in July

Cantine Aziende Agricole

Osteria al Squero is a wonderful cichetti bar with most dishes under 10 euros and strong spritzes under 3 euros. It's located opposite the gondola boatyard in the Doroduro district. Cantine Aziende Agricole (Centro Storico Rio Tera Farsetti 1847) is a charming, down-to-earth bar that attracts more locals than tourists. Round out a glass of wine or spritz with a crostini col lardo.

Busa Alla Torre

While you're on Murano Island touring the glass-making factories, stop by the Busa alla Torre (3 Campo San Stefan). This seafood restaurant serves impressive takes on soft-shell crabs, shrimp, and calamari.

Gelato Fantasy

On a hot summer day nothing beats the heat like gelato. Venice has a handful of delicious gelateria worth checking out. Try Gelato Fantasy (Calle dei Fabbri 929) for their amazing textures. Their pistachio and Venetian creme come highly recommended.

Suso Gelatoteca

Another good bet is Suso Gelatoteca (San Marco 5453), with flavours like hazelnut, fig and Napoleone.

Cafe Filermo

Cafe Filermo (Cannareggio 2208) is an excellent coffee shop with a cosy and friendly atmosphere. Just note that their menu is mostly coffee and wines, no food--not a place to grab a lunch, but rather an afternoon tea.

Osteria di Santa Marina

Want to impress a date? Take them out to Osteria di Santa Marina (Campo SM 5911), a rustic restaurant complemented by a candlelit garden. The wine list is extensive and the food is innovative--from duck with chicken liver sauce to tuna carpaccio with white truffle. The items are pricey, but not more than usual for Venice, and the meal is worth it. 

Things to Do in Venice in July

Sestieri

Venice is made up of various burroughs, the most famous of which is called the Sestieri, the main island--Cannaregio, Castello, Dorsoduro, San Polo, Santa Croce and San Marco. Getting around the city is best done on a vaporetto (water taxi) or simply on foot. Venetian canals were intended to substitute for streets, so many palazzos and houses were built with entrances on the water.

Rialto and San Marco

Otherwise, walking is the best mode of transport and the best way to soak up the sites. With its narrow pathways and alleys, it is easy to get lost--but make your way back to the main attractions like the Rialto and San Marco should be simple enough. Just note that addresses in Venice are listed by district; technically there are no streets in Venice. These numbers increase the farther away they are from the Grand Canal.

Doge's Palace

No visit to Venice would be complete without an afternoon in the Doge's Palace. Built in Venetian Gothic style, the Palazzo Ducale on San Marco Square is one of the main landmarks of Venice.

Once the seat of government, it opened to the public as a museum in 1923. To say that the architecture is lavish or grandiose would be an understatement. Ornamentation is widespread with historic and biblical scenes decorating columns, facades, doors, gates and other structural elements.

Porta della Carta

The main entrance to the palace is the Porta della Carta, and also served as the location where important announcements were read. You can wander the rooms yourself or take a guided tour through Casanova's gaol and up to the five hundred year old roof. The ticket will grant you access to the palace, the Museo Correr, Museo Archeologico Nazionale, and the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana.

Jewish Ghetto

The historical Jewish Ghetto it was decreed that all Jews of Venice be confined to this remote neighbourhood in Cannareggio. The term ghetto derives from the Venetian word for slag, or a byproduct of smelting metal. Centuries ago, Venice still permitted furnaces on the island, but restricted them to this area to reduce the risk of widespread fire.

This area was the inspiration behind Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice. To reach the Ghetto, walk from Saint Lucia station along the Lista di Spagna and head northwest. You can wander around or visit one of the synagogues or the museum of Jewish history, with its exhibitions of religious memorabilia.

Nicola Tenderini

At the Erberia Market Rialto, stop by the art studio of Nicola Tenderini (Campo Bella Vienna, San Polo 216). This local artist sells a variety of magnificent watercolours on calendars, recipe books, posters, prints and more. He has been commissioned by hotels, magazines, galleries and other companies for his detailed paintings of landscapes and city views.

Missiaja

Art lovers might also enjoy a visit to the gallery of Missiaja (San Marco 1805). This architect-turned-artist mixes computer generated images handmade paper to produce amazing results. Pick up a box of notecards for $10 or $300 for larger items.

I Tre Mercanti

Visitors seeking to bring home food souvenirs might try the I Tre Mercanti (Campo della Guerra 5364), a tasty food gallery where you can find parmesan, vinegars, oils, pasta sauces and wines.

Drogheria Mascari

Or stop by Drogheria Mascari (381 S. Polo), with its plethora of truffles, fruits, marmalades, 80 kinds of spices, 50 types of honey and 100 varieties of chocolate.

Giuliana Longo

Need a Venetian hat or heel? Pick up a beret of rabbit fur from milliner Giuliana Longo (Calle del Lovo 4813), in business since 1968. She also crafts traditional gondola hats, panama hats, and unique headgear for the Carnevale.

Giovanna Zanella

Next, visit Giovanna Zanella's workshop (5641 Castello) for her avant-garde designs, from frog-skin flats to pink leather.

Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo

Somewhat off the beaten path is the 15th century Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo (San Marco 4299). This palace is ringed by an arched spiral staircase from the ground floor to the top, giving it its name, Bovolo (snail). From the top you can view a charming panorama over the rooftops. Most worthy of note, the palace was shot in a scene of Orson Welles' adaptation of Othello (1952), where it served as Brabantio's house.

Murano

If you have time, opt for a day excursion out to the island of Murano. You can catch a vaporetto that departs from the Fondamenta Nuove every ten minutes. Murano has been the main glass-making centre since 1291, since furnaces have been banished altogether from Venice proper. A few worth checking out are Carlo Moretti (3 Fondamenta D. Manin) and Sent Guglielmo (8A Fondamenta dei Vetrai).

Burano Island also makes for a colorful visit. A domicile archipelago 30 minutes from Venice, Burano's houses are all colourful chaos. Green, salmon, indigo, yellow--you name it, there's a home in that colour. The colours are carefully regulated by law, with colour choice approved first by the government.

The best way to appreciate the town is to nab a gelato and walk down the streets. Otherwise, enjoy lunch and a spritz and take a break from the crowds of Venice. To reach Burano, take the Vaporetto from Fondamente Nuove.

Other than the official museums and galleries, there are several residences of historical and artistic interest. The 18th century Ca' Rezzonico offers a glimpse into noble Venetian life, with antique furniture, ornate frescoes, exquisite paintings and Murano chandeliers.

Dates for the Diary

The third weekend in July is the Festa del Redentore (Feast of the Redeemer) and is celebrated with a regatta on the Grand Canal, complete with fireworks. Every July, a pontoon bridge is built across the canal that separates a lone church and the rest of Venice proper, so people can make their respects.

Theatre lovers will enjoy the Shakespeare Festival with many performances of the Bard's plays. And culture vultures will enjoy the Opera Festival which begins this month, with a range of performances of theatre, poetry, dance and opera.
