Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is set to resume the operation of the marine transportation line between Dubai and Sharjah starting Friday, August 4.
The marine transport service will be running eight journeys a day from Monday to Thursday (weekdays), and six journeys from Friday to Sunday (weekends).
This marine service, the first of its kind connecting Dubai with other emirates, shuttles between Al Ghubaiba Marine Station in Dubai and Aquarium Marine Station in Sharjah.
Dubai Ferry to Sharjah
It is operated in collaboration with the Roads and Transport Authority in Sharjah.
The introduction of the ferry service is part of the cooperative efforts between the emirates to offer additional mobility choices, ease traffic intensity, and use safe maritime transport given the extended coastal area of the two emirates.
The journey between Al Ghubaiba Station and the Sharjah Aquarium Station takes about 35 minutes. On weekdays, there will be two morning journeys from Sharjah at 7am and 8.30am along with one morning journey from the other side at 7.45am.
In the evening, there will be two journeys from Sharjah at 4.45pm and 6.15pm, and three journeys from Dubai at 4pm, 5.30pm and 7pm.
From Friday to Sunday, there will be six journeys, three journeys from each side starting from noon.
Departure times from Sharjah will be at 2pm, 4pm and 6pm, whereas the journeys from Dubai will start at 3pm, 5pm and 8pm.
Ticket fares for a single journey are offered at 15AED for the Silver Class and 25AED for the Gold Class, but will be free of charge for People of Determination and children under five.
Clients can pay the fare at the Customers Services Desk at the Station, use nol card, or buy tickets online.
