    Getting TO/AROUND: Do you want to get there fast or slow?
    Know before you go, because you can get there either way, depending on which vaporetto you jump on. We wanted to get there directly. So first we take the ferry from our stop, San Toma' to the San Marco area. A little scouting around, and we find a big passenger ferry that will deliver us to Lido directly, no stops. hooray! (I think it was by San Zaccaria) First we have to wait in a huge holding pen area, which fills to overstuffed capacity before they let us board. When they open the flood gates everyone scrambles to get to the top level. Good luck. From above, on a nice day, you will have a good breeze and good photo shots.

    Getting TO/AROUND: It's a good idea to check the schedule of return trips before you walk away. To be honest, we never did. The boats seem to come frequently enough that there is never a very long wait.

    Getting TO/AROUND: When you come out of the vaporetto stop there will be buses. You don't need one of these. Just cross the street to the island's main cut-through-to-the-beach road called Gran Viale S. Maria Elisabetta.

    An easy 15 minute stroll straight through to the beach. And if you need any beach supplies: lotion, towels, etc., all these things are sold conveniently along the way...

    Getting TO/AROUND: When you see this structure, you're there! This cool looking entrance to the beach is called The New Blue Moon to the Lido. We turned left here and followed Lungomare d'Annunzio a little ways.

    Getting TO/AROUND: We weren't sure how this all worked, very different from the seashore of New Jersey we are used to. So we just decide to go in here and see what's up.

    Easy enough. For 23 euros, we got an umbrella, two chairs and passes to use the toilet/showers.

     Your Lido pages are delightful. Your step-by-step explanation is just wonderful. I agree that it is well thought out in its design. Great transportation information, too. Superior photos.
