About the S. Marco-San Zaccaria "A" – Lido S.M.E. "C" crossing
Lido S.M.E. "C" is reached from S. Marco-San Zaccaria "A" via a direct, high-frequency water bus service. ACTV provides the crossing, which takes just 14 minutes to cover the one nautical mile distance. The service is available every day, with the first sailing at 01:00 and the last at 23:45.
Sailing Schedule and Alternatives
With 46 sailings scheduled daily, this is a turn-up-and-go public transport link rather than a traditional ferry crossing. The single operator, ACTV, maintains a consistent 14-minute journey time on all departures. Passengers departing from the main S. Marco-San Zaccaria terminal complex have the option of a different ACTV route to Punta Sabbioni "A", while Lido S.M.E. "C" serves as a hub with connections to Punta Sabbioni and Lido S. Nicolo'.
The directness of this specific ACTV line is its primary feature. While Lido S.M.E. "C" also receives services from S. Marco-San Zaccaria "F", the "A" dock provides the shortest and most frequent connection. The schedule, beginning just after midnight and running until late evening, integrates the route into Venice's local transport network.
