Venice is known as "City of Water" in the sense that its urban fabric is not only crossed by waterways, but it is also completely surrounded by water. The city's shape can be compared to a big fish, characterised by two characteristic and unique transport systems - waterways and routes accessible only on foot. In this environment, unique in the world, public transport is guaranteed by a network of waterways which develop in, cross through or circumnavigate Venice to reach the most distant points: the islands in the lagoon.
Perhaps not everyone knows that the difference between right berthing and left berthing is established with your back to the water. |

LAGOON LINES
These lines connect Venice with the most important islands in the lagoon, both in the north lagoon (Mazzorbo, Burano, Torcello, Sant’Erasmo) and the south lagoon.
The lagoon lines also link transport nodes on the mainland and in Venice province with the city centre. You can in fact reach Venice directly from Punta Sabbioni, Treporti and Chioggia.
The lagoon lines also include the ferry-boat line no. 17 connecting Lido di Venezia and the Tronchetto terminal and the bus line no. 11 linking Lido di Venezia with the island of Pellestrina.
The San Lazzaro - Lido Casinò section of line no. 20 is seasonal, to verify availability contact the Hellovenezia Call Center (+39)-041-2424. |
