How Line 11 works

Three legs, one ticket, one journey. Each transition is signposted and crews handle the timing — you just follow the crowd.

Leg 1: Lido bus

From Lido S.M.E. take the Line A bus (or Line 11 bus) south through the island to Alberoni. About 25 minutes. Same Vaporetto ticket — just tap on board.

Leg 2: Pellestrina ferry

A short ferry crossing from Alberoni to Santa Maria del Mare on Pellestrina island. 10 minutes. The vaporetto pontoon is at the bus stop — no walking.

Leg 3: Pellestrina bus + Caroman ferry

A bus down the length of Pellestrina (about 30 minutes through a narrow strip of village and lagoon-front), then a 10-minute ferry from Caroman to Chioggia. Arrive at Chioggia's main canal.
