Above, Fisolo as seen from the Derelict Octagon.
Of late the isle has been protected by backing the banks and restoring the landing stage,
which you can spot in the photo on your right.

The isle of Fisolo has a surface of 0.5 hectares and lies on the Southern Lagoon,
on the homonymous canal, close to the entrance to Alberoni harbour, half a mile from the
Derelict Octagon and the former Poveglia Isle.
In the past, the isle was a military stronghold and powder-magazine, due to its strategic
location.
Its banks are lined with white rocks, which allows you to spot it from afar.
