Is Zattere Promenade worth it as a couple?

Worth itAs a couple

As a couple, Zattere Promenade works.

This broad, sun-trapping fondamenta runs the southern edge of Dorsoduro facing Giudecca island — a rare wide-open, breezy stroll in a cramped city, beloved for sunset, gelato from Nico, and watching big boats slide past. The catch: it's 'just a walk', so it's a free atmospheric add-on rather than a destination, and there's little to do but stroll and sit.
