>> Il Pontile: THE LANDING DOCK

Don’t get confused: the landing is not the vaporetto. If there is more than one landing, you’ll first need to identify the correct one, then board when the boat arrives.

For stops (fermate) that service only a single line, there will be only one landing. (One exception: Riva S. Biasio has one stop for LINE 1, and a separate one for LINE 51-52).

The principal stops serve multiple lines. For these, there will be more than one landing. As you face the water, boats heading to your left will stop at the landing on the right (that is, at the first one they approach), and vice-versa for those heading in the opposite direction. Verify the direction with the overhead indications and the on-board attendants. These larger stops can be particularly confusing, and things do change from time to time, according to season, construction, or other factors, so do double-check landings and lines to make sure you head in the right direction.

A schedule with specific times, stops, and direction is located at the entrance of each landing. Times are specified as minutes past the hour, with the hour posted above.

You’ll also spot ticket booths at all the principal stops (San Zaccaria, San Marco/Vallaresso, Accademia, San Tomà, Rialto, Ferrovia, Piazzale Roma), and some of the smaller ones (Ca d’Oro, for example, is only open part of the day). You cannot buy vaporetto tickets at the tabaccaio.
