Baia Holiday has always been attentive to the environment and this green vision is also reflected within our Camping Village Cavallino. To continue supporting the development of sustainable tourism we have activated a series of actions for people, planet and prosperity. In addition, to protect and preserve the magnificent habitat of the natural areas in which our facilities are located and to support the local community, we have introduced the ‘Environment Fee’: this is applied to the amount of the stay and is entirely destined to finance actions for environmental sustainability.
Nature is an integral part of our holiday concept. That is why we respect it.
Count on us for a unique and sustainable holiday experience.

Nature: the green heart of our campsites. GSTC certification is awarded to organisations that demonstrate a serious and continuous commitment to sustainability in all their activities. In Italy Camping Village Cavallino is the second campsite to be awarded this sustainability certificate and the first among the Baia Holiday Camping Villages.
Blue Flag
Cavallino-Treporti: a beach of excellence. Since 2006 the Cavallino-Treporti coastline has uninterruptedly hoisted the “Blue Flag”, the prestigious international recognition awarded to seaside resorts of excellence that stand out for the cleanliness of their bathing water, the quality of services offered and their respect for and management of the environment.
Green Flag
Cavallino-Treporti: award-winning child-friendly resort. The gently sloping sandy beach, equipped with beach umbrellas and playground, the shallow and clean seabed and the presence of an efficient lifeguard service characterise the Cavallino Treporti coastline. Thanks to these special features our area, lying between the Upper Adriatic and the Northern Lagoon of Venice, has received the “Green Flag” award again this year.
