Meeting Venue

The meeting will be held at the Institute of Marine Sciences (ISMAR). The institute has recently relocated to a new location in the Arsenale complex. However we will be meeting at ISMAR's former office building - see the directions below.

Riva Sette Martiri, Castello 1364/a, 30122, Venice
Phone number +39 041 2404711.

From the Venice train station (Ferrovia Santa Lucia) or Piazzale Roma (if arriving by car/bus) take the ACTV n° 51 or n° 61 in the 'Lido' direction and get off at the 'Giardini' stop. The ISMAR building is a short walk along the lagoon-side to the left. You can also take the boat line ACTV n° 1. This is a slower route, but very worthwhile since it goes along the whole Grand Canal.

Getting There

The nearest airport is Marco Polo Venice Airport. To get to the meeting venue and recommended hotels, take the Alilaguna Linea Blu (Blue Line) from the airport to the 'Arsenale' stop. The ride is just over an hour long and boats leave every 30 minutes from 6am to midnight. Tickets can be purchased at the Alilaguna office in the airport arrivals lounge. A one-way ticket costs 15 Euros (or 13 Euros if purchased online), and a return ticket costs 25 Euros (24 Euros online).

From the Venice train station (Ferrovia Santa Lucia) or Piazzale Roma (if arriving by car/bus) take the ACTV n° 51 or n° 61 in the 'Lido' direction and get off at the 'Giardini' stop. The ISMAR building is a short walk along the lagoon-side to the left. You can also take the boat line ACTV n° 1. This is a slower route, but very worthwhile since it goes along the whole Grand Canal.
