The ferry in S.Tom�.

This ferry allows to whom is in the zone west of S. Polo (S. Tom�- Frari) or in the north of Dorsoduro (Ca' Foscari)to go to the west zone of the sestiere of S. Mark (Campo S. Angelo or CampoS. Stefano). And vice versa.

The ferry in "Calle del Traghetto".

Once we got off at the landing of "Calle del traghetto"in S. Mark sestiere, one can easily reach Campo S. Stefano and from there take the route of Accademia, or, from the opposite side, of S.Angelo. On the contrary, from the side of S. Tom�;, one arrives at once at the homonymous campo and from there one can continue to Campo dei Frari, with the church di S. Maria Gloriosa dei Frari and the near Scuola di S. Rocco,or go left to the sestiere of Dorsoduro, where, through Calle Larga Ca' Foscari, one can reach the university that is taken at Ca' Foscari palace. It is the fastest way to reach Piazzale Roma and the railway station.
