Mainly using for adnoc Island and zakum passengers. While coming back from offshore if you don't have any transportation available from irshad port u should book a taxi. Without booking the port security won't allow the taxi to come inside the port. And for the company car they should apply for the entry pass along with the security pass.
nice clean place and security check with scanner all bages and boarding
Ferry terminal for passenger transportation to all Adnoc offshore artificial islands. Well maintained. No WiFi connection is available in the terminal. And no refreshments available.
Very good security, prepare to come before 1.5 hrs of boarding. Also if the driver do not have the pass to enter the port prepare to walk inside for 1.5 km to terminal from gate. Consider arrival atleast 1.5 hrs before the time. CICPA pass is mandatory.
To go to the Heart of Europe Hotel, you have to be there, there are chairs to sit on, and the officials are careful, but there is no supermarket, no taxi station, no asphalt parking space and no canopy, but it is free.
travelled here to board a ship bound for heart of europe Monaco. It's easy to find the location. There isn't a food shop nearby, carry some water during the summer so you can stay hydrated while you wait for your boat ride.
Always love the journeys along Dubai creek, great to take in the atmosphere of old Dubai and see the old buildings.
No undercover parking - parking on sand only. RTA ferry from World Islands was comfortable and on time
They have transportation only every two hours. They didn’t mention anything about the timing that it will be every two hours that we could have planned accordingly.
Also in a morning they start from 9:00AM not earlier which was again not explained.
We visited the Dubai Marina and took the RTA operated abra to cruise from one stop to the next just as an experience. We used the Nol card to pay and it was a great relaxing ride. It was after 8 pm so most of the day time rides had ended; if not you can opt for longer routes which is safe and worth the money. You can use the same location to book the private cruises as well.
Très sympa pour traverser la Creek et rejoindre le Souk de l'Or de l'autre côté de la rive.

Transfering to offshore islands via Irshad Ferry Terminal . Start using this port several years back , good service and hassle free crew.
It's a fun activity and an amazing experience....

A place of solitude at the same time if you are someone who would love to get away from the busy city life.

The journey is pretty comfortable and very reasonable. You will get a close look at a lot of the sights during the ride.

The RTA ferry has three stations (Burj khalifa, this one and Burj Al Arab) and this station is the middle one....

Great Ferry service operated by RTA. You can take it from marina mall station . You can enjoy great views from the ferry. Takes almost 2 hours to bur Dubai.
It’s a great experience to have a ride on ferry from RTA marina station to Al Gubaiba station , Bur Dubai which will take around 2 hours , cost AED 50 per pax . You can enjoy nice view from the sea the main part of Dubai like Ain Dubai, Burj Al Arab , sky dive , Atlantis hotel , infinity bridge etc …
On time like clockwork.
3 methods of payment.
Cash,
Card,
Or Your RTA metro card. Make sure you have enough $ on your RTA card it as they check prior to boarding.
I found the time table on Google Maps only.
Found the website difficult to navigate.

It was an amazing sea trip that last for 60 minutes and cost me 50 AED that I paid it thoroughly by my Nol card. From it, you can see the most popular tourist attractions of Dubai and take pictures and videos as much as possible you can. The good time for this trip is the afternoon because the weather in Dubai is very hot and sunny.

It’s worth it! A cheap way to have a different view of Dubai. If you like to explore the city it’s for you.
Direkt am Al-Seef Distrikt angeschlossen. Von hier kommt man für 1 bis 2 Dirhams über den Creek.

It’s one of the best way to experience and view the city's coastline of Dubai Marina to around the Atlantis, The Palm in an air-conditioned water taxi..
Wonderful place to relax and enjoy..
Good to have a ride on the water fery. Nice and clean seating with good view on both side while on tour.

You can also go at the back to have a view from outside.
Plenty of Open space to spend time with family and friends away from city crowd, Nice view of Dubai skyline along Shaikh Zayed Road,
No proper road to reach the spot, lack of proper parking space could be reason for limited visitors

It is the best way to explore Dubai by water on budget. Dubai Ferry is operated by Dubai public transport company. It is a better and cheaper alternative to expensive luxury yacht tours. Dubai Ferries do not have guided tours though. The boats are new, speedy, with comfortable seats and AC. But the best viewpoints are outside on the deck. There are several interconnected routes that let you see most Dubai sights (The Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Dubai Water Canal, etc). The price for each route is around 50 AED (~ 13 USD). Tickets can be bought only at ticket offices at the places of departure. Routes and prices are available online at Dubai Ferry website.
