Ship Size Matters

In January, there will be a limit on the number of ships over 40,000 tons that will be allowed in Venice Lagoon. 

After November 2014, no cruise ships over 90,000 tons will be allowed in the lagoon.  Officials expect that large ships will be rerouted through the Contorta Saint’ Angelo Canal which is further away from the most visited parts of the city.

If Venice is high on your list of places to see while on a cruise, this may be the last year that you will have a wide choice of ships and cruise lines that offer convenient access to the city.
