Sailing from Fusina

[PaulaJK]

We are accustomed to sail from Venice proper but have never sailed from Fusina. 
Would appreciate any information about this. Is it better to stay/ hotel on Guidecca

or Murano? Do you have to go to Marittima to check in or has some facility

been set up in Fusina?

It's my understanding that passenger security and check in for Fusina is done at Marittima, with shuttle to the ship.  I'm not sure when (or if) that will change.

 

Chioggia, at the far southwest end of the lagoon, apparently does passenger handling at the dock (as does Ravenna).  I'm not sure about Mestre, but I suspect they use Marittima for check in.
