Venice Water Buses

Linea Blu, Linea Arancio, Linea Rossa and Linea Verde water buses tour Venice's canals and waterways. At Venice International Airport the water bus leaves from its own dock, linking to Venice and the main islands Murano, Burano and Lido, where the famous beach is located.

Alilaguna are the operators of these lines and tickets can be purchased in the Public Transport Ticket Office in the Arrivals Hall, at ticket machines near the baggage reclaim carousels 3 or 5 and at the dock itself. You can also buy tickets onboard water buses. Follow the light blue signs for “Water Transport” at the terminal to Level 1, where the Moving Walkway is located, an elevated pedestrian people mover system that leads to the landing stage.
