    Getting TO/AROUND: To reach San Michele, the quickest way from Venice is from the Fondamente Nuove in Cannaregio sestieri, by the circular 41 or 42 Vaporetto (water bus), or on the same service from Murano.

    It is possible to get on the vaporetto in San Zaccaria, or many other places around Venice, but it can be a long trip, especially if You jump on the vaporetto and its going in the wrong direction. The No. 41 travels an anti clockwise route, while the No. 42 travels clockwise

    The only vaporetto station on San Michele is Cimitero, which you can see in the photo.

    Vaporettos run roughly every 20 minutes from Fondamente Nuova. There is a ticket office, to purchase tickets.

    If you have just missed one, I'd recommend walking a few steps to enjoy a drink on the terrace of Algiubagio - the restaurant at the foot of the bridge (closed Tuesdays), or enjoy an ice cream or slice of fresh pizza, from the pizzeria/ gelateria further to the left, which is owned by the same people

    Just off the Fondamente Nuova is the Gesuiti church, worth visiting for its theatrical architecture
