The Venetian expression 'porto de mar' loosely translates as hubbub, but literally means sea port. This new venue, with darkroom, bar and outside area used for cruising in summer, is worth the trip just for a glimpse of the old port before it is fully regenerated. The bar's popular with a younger crowd, but is also very welcoming if you're the wrong side of 40.
