If you’re planning a stay at one of the seaside resorts, renting a car is usually the most convenient option. You’ll find branches of well-known international and local car rental companies right in the terminal. You’ll especially appreciate having a car if you’re traveling with your family and a lot of luggage, want to visit multiple resorts during a single vacation, or are planning trips to Venice or Trieste.

How to get from the airport to the coast without a car?
The good news is that the Northern Adriatic is one of the most accessible coastal regions in Italy. Even without a car, you can reach most resorts quite comfortably.
Direct buses to resorts
During the summer season, direct bus lines run from Marco Polo Airport to some seaside destinations.
The most common destinations are Bibione, Lignano Sabbiadoro, Caorle, and Lido di Jesolo.
The advantage is that you don’t have to worry about transfers or moving luggage between the train and the bus.
Train
The airport does not have its own train station, but a bus will take you to the Venezia Mestre or Venezia Santa Lucia stations in just a short while.
From there, you can continue by train to Portogruaro, Latisana, San Donà di Piave, or Trieste, for example.
Upon arrival at the station, bus service to individual resorts usually follows.
This option is usually cost-effective, but it may be less comfortable if you have a lot of luggage.
Taxis and private transfers
If you prefer to avoid transfers, you can book a private transfer directly from the airport to your hotel. The trip to Lido di Jesolo takes about 30 to 40 minutes, and to Caorle, Bibione, and Lignano approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
This option is especially popular with families with small children or for evening arrivals.
If you’re heading to Bibione, Lignano, Caorle, or Lido di Jesolo, Marco Polo is one of the most convenient airports to start your beach vacation.
