It takes over at night when the daytime lines <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/vaporetto-venice\/line-1\/\">line 1<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/vaporetto-venice\/line-2\/\">line 2<\/a> stop running, connecting the <strong>Grand Canal<\/strong> and the <strong>Giudecca Canal<\/strong> in a loop: San Zaccaria \u2014 Giudecca \u2014 Tronchetto \u2014 Piazzale Roma \u2014 Ferrovia \u2014 Rialto \u2014 San Marco \u2014 Lido. It runs roughly <strong>from 23:30 into the early hours<\/strong> (until around 04:30\u201305:00), about every 30 minutes. The regular ACTV fare applies (single ride \u20ac9.50, included in the 24-hour pass).<\/p><\/section>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When does line N run?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Line N picks up where the daytime lines leave off: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/vaporetto-venice\/line-1\/\">line 1<\/a> has its last departure around <strong>23:41<\/strong>, after which line N is the continuous Grand Canal connection until services resume in the early morning. It runs roughly <strong>from 23:30 until around 04:30\u201305:00<\/strong>, about every 30 minutes \u2014 exact departure times shift slightly by season and direction. The notices at the piers and the official AVM\/Venezia Unica app are authoritative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Route and key stops<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike the pure Grand Canal line 1, line N runs a <strong>ring loop<\/strong> across both of the city&#8217;s great waterways \u2014 the Giudecca Canal in the south and the Grand Canal in the north. That means practically all the central piers are served at night too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tv-decision-matrix-wrap\"><table class=\"tv-decision-matrix\"><caption>Line N \u2014 the key stops<\/caption><thead><tr><th scope=\"col\">Stop<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Significance at night<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>San Marco-San Zaccaria<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Eastern St Mark&#8217;s, Riva degli Schiavoni \u2014 the main hub and frequent starting point of the night loop<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Giudecca \/ Zitelle \/ Redentore<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Serves the island of Giudecca and the hotels on the Giudecca Canal \u2014 at night reachable only via line N<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Tronchetto<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Car-park island and car terminal at the entrance to the city<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Piazzale Roma<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Bus terminal and mainland connection \u2014 important for late\/early arrivals<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Ferrovia (Santa Lucia)<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Main station \u2014 connections to night and early trains<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Rialto<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Middle of the Grand Canal, central interchange and orientation point<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>San Marco-Vallaresso<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Western St Mark&#8217;s<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td data-label=\"Stop\"><strong>Lido S.M.E.<\/strong><\/td><td data-label=\"Significance at night\">Lido endpoint of the loop<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because line N runs a loop, it pays to check the <strong>direction of travel<\/strong> at the pier before boarding: depending on whether you board clockwise or anticlockwise, you reach your destination faster.

If you are out late, buy your ticket in advance via the app or at the machine \u2014 not every counter is staffed at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other night lines in the lagoon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Line N covers the city centre and the Lido.
