About the Murano Colonna B – Lido S. Nicolo' crossing
18:08 and 19:08, every day, and nothing else. Exactly an hour apart, both after six, covering 2 nautical miles across the northern lagoon in 26 minutes.
A slow two miles
Twenty-six minutes for two miles is about four and a half knots. Vaporetti are not fast, and in the lagoon the speed limits matter more than the hull — the channels are shallow and the wash damages the banks.
San Nicolò, not Santa Maria Elisabetta
The Lido has more than one landing. San Nicolò is at the northern tip beside the port entrance, a long way from the beachfront stop most visitors mean when they say Lido.
Summer edition to 31 August
ACTV reissues its lagoon timetables seasonally. Two evening sailings is what this pairing gets in the summer plan; the autumn edition is published separately.
