Cavallino Treporti is a peninsula separating the northern part of the Venetian lagoon from the Adriatic Sea. It can be reached both by land and by sea.  The old town of Venice is about 10 kilometres away.

The area was thriving, especially in the Early Middle Ages. The main historical buildings are characterized by military constructions like barracks, fortifications, forts, towers etc. Within the municipality it is possible to drive and to move around with public transport. There is also a very functional, recent infrastructure for the bike and pedestrian mobility. The nearest airport is the Marco Polo Venice airport, at about 50 kilometres.

The nearest highway is the A57 at about 60 kilometres, and can be reached by the provincial road SP42, the regional road SR43 and the State road SS14. The Old Fort is accessible by Via Lungomare San Felice and is located in front of the Canal Pordelio, about two kilometres away from the Terminal of Punta Sabbioni, from which all the connections to Venice depart.
