Certosa

From: Venice Waterbus Stops

Certosa is a tiny single-platform waterbus stop on a small island (the Isola della Certosa) just off the tip of San Pietro, at the eastern end of Venice's historic center.

The island has a marina, a nautical school, a ruined monastery, and not much else, so you're unlikely to visit unless you're mooring a boat or letting your dog run free.
