Rialto

From: Venice Waterbus Stops

Rialto is one of Venice's busiest ACTV stops. It consists of four pontili or floating platforms on the eastern or San Marco side of the Grand Canal, immediately south of the Rialto Bridge.

Rialto ACTV and Alilaguna waterbus station

The station is served by:

ACTV Lines 1, 2, N public water buses
Alilaguna Linea Arancio airport boats

When departing from Rialto, make sure that you're at the right boat platform. (Look for a map of the pontili and their route numbers near the ACTV ticket booth, or click the thumbnail at right for a larger diagram.)
