Venice's Lido is an 11-mile long sandbar, home to about 20,000 residents, greatly augmented by the (mainly Italian) tourists who move in every summer. The island's casino has recently closed down - it used to be used in the summer months, moving to a palazzo in Venice for the winter. The Venice film festival takes place here every September.
