What are the best options to get from the Piazza San Marco area in Venice, to the cruise ship terminal in Fusina? Apparently the vaporetto stop in Fusina is a substantial distance from the cruise ship terminal, and the Venice-to-cruise-ship transfer options have been in flux for the past year or so.

There is a ferry from Venice to the cruise port. It leaves from the Zattere Gesuati stop in Venice and I THINK it goes directly to the cruise terminal. But I might be wrong about that. Try several google searches and see if you think that would work for you.

That is the whole problem- the ferry/vaporetto goes to a totally different location about two miles away from the cruise terminal, too far to walk and no effective transport between the two. This question features quite a lot on the forum.
The easiest answer is to go to Venice Mestre railway station (on the mainland) and taxi from there, if the cruise line are not providing a shuttle bus from the old Venice cruise terminal.
