The [[Port of Venice]] ({{langx|it|Porto di Venezia}}) is the eighth-busiest commercial port in Italy and was a major hub for the cruise sector in the [[Mediterranean]], as since August 2021 ships of more 25,000 tons are forbidden to pass the [[Giudecca Canal]]. It is one of the major Italian ports and is included in the list of the leading European ports which are located on the strategic nodes of trans-European networks. In 2002, the port handled 262,337 containers. In 2006, 30,936,931 tonnes passed through the port, of which 14,541,961 was commercial traffic, and saw 1,453,513 passengers.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Fletcher |first1=C.
