About the OspedaleCelestia crossing

The Venetian ports of Ospedale and Celestia face each other across a narrow canal, a distance of approximately 0 nautical miles. This domestic Italian route is one of several very short water bus, or *vaporetto*, links within the city of Venice itself. The public transport company ACTV manages this specific connection.

Ospedale - Celestia Timetable

ACTV provides a high-frequency service, with 56 scheduled sailings every day. The crossing is extremely brief, taking just 2 minutes from dock to dock. This makes it a critical part of the local transport network for residents moving between these two adjacent neighbourhoods of the Castello sestiere.

Departures run consistently throughout the day, beginning at 00:02 and ending with the last sailing at 23:02. Both Ospedale and Celestia are hubs for other ACTV services, with Ospedale offering connections to F.te Nove and Punta Sabbioni, while Celestia has a direct link to S. Pietro di Castello.
