The lagoon is a lake of salt water, in some parts only a few centimeters deep, bounded towards the sea by sand dunes and twoards the river side by mud and sand banks, regularly submerged by the tides and “bonelli” mud Islands.

Where the waves penetrate shallow muddy Islands are formed among the branches of the river.Both in the lagoon and in the Sacca, shellfish and mollusks are raised, and the young fish are seeded in the Valle.

There are several lagoon in the Po Delta: Caleri, Vallona, Barbamarco, Batteria, Burcio, Basson e Bonelli Levante. “Sacche” are only 2: Canarin e Scardovari, known for raising mollusks and clams.
