Venice Canoe & Dragon Boat is the currently the leader in the diffusion and promotion of dragon boating in Venice and in Italy.
Young and dynamic, ‘Venice’ (as it is affectionately known) was established on the 25th of February 2003, formed by a group of friends who were eager to develop the many opportunities provided by this unusual boat with the head and tail in the form of a dragon. Students, managers, athletes, tourists and whoever else has had the opportunity to try this fascinating boat has remained enthusiastic by the strength with which this sport brings people together.
- “All together in the same boat! All together to the beat of the drum!” – with these slogans, men and women of all ages and walks of life have experienced the emotions of paddling with their friends and colleagues with a common goal – it could be as simple as a leisurely excursion, or as tough as a victory at a World Championships!
