Rare cruisemom42 Posted August 28, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 28, 2019 There are no shops near the pier in Venice. The closest stores are located in Piazzale Roma, which is where you board the People Mover to get to the port. (And it is also the main transportation hub of Venice with the train station, bus links to the airport and other towns, and a number of vaporetto (water bus) routes stop there.

They will start boarding per that cruise line's policy...generally, cruise lines do it the same way world wide. Without knowing what ship you are on, hard to help. You could also ask on the board for that cruise line, as it would be cruise line policy and procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the beach Posted August 28, 2019 #6 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I could be mistaken as it was just starting to pour and we were rushing but on our way to the terminal after dropping off our bags I could swear I saw a couple of booths selling souveniers, etc. No actual stores though.

Rare VMax1700 Posted August 28, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 28, 2019 There is a small coffee (espresso!) bar selling coffee beer paninis in one of the terminal buildings. Also I seem to remember a small shop selling odds and ends, but can't remember exactly what! sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank's for any feed back If you want to shop for anything of substance you'll need to do it in Venice and or at the airport. The main port has very very minimal amenities, just facilitation of check-in / emark-dismebark. I think I did recall some portable carts but if you need sundries / water - snack or trinkets plan them before port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
