Port of Chioggia, Commercial port in Chioggia, Italy.

The Port of Chioggia sits at the southern entrance to the Venice Lagoon and functions as a working harbor for fishing boats, cargo vessels, and occasional cruise ships. It forms a natural border between the water and the town, with direct access to streets and public spaces for those walking through.

In 1934 two breakwaters were built to deepen the channel through the port entrance: the north breakwater 1,800 metres long and the south one 1,600 metres. This work raised the channel depth to 7-8 metres. The port lies at the southern access to the Venice Lagoon, between the island of Pellestrina and Sottomarina, in the municipality of Chioggia.

The port remains central to the town's identity, with fishing boats and maritime work shaping daily life along the waterfront. Local people and visitors alike see the working harbor as a living connection to the sea and the community's roots.

The harbor is easily reached on foot from the town center and can be observed while walking along the waterfront. Early morning is the best time to visit, when fishing boats are actively working and the harbor is at its busiest.

The port is the southernmost entrance to the Venice Lagoon, lying between the island of Pellestrina and Sottomarina in the municipality of Chioggia. Locals call it the "bocca di porto di Chioggia".
