John 6:22-24

The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone. Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus. 

the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake 
John 6:1-2  Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is the Sea of Tiberias), and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs he had performed by healing the sick.

Then some boats from Tiberias 
Luke 23:7-8  [NIV text note - Herod's main headquarters and residence was in Tiberias. There is no record that Jesus ever preached in Tiberias.]
When he [Pilate] learned that Jesus was under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time. When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him. From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort.

landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 
John 6:11  Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.
