Dubai Water Canal
The ferry is no longer running along Dubai Water Canal and the service has been changed to the Dubai Water Bus. Tickets are 2 dirhams per stop.
Gold Class
The gold class (of which there are 14 seats) is at the front of the boat in a separate area with more comfortable seats.
Silver Class
The Silver class seats (of which there are 84) are in the main body of the boat and from here you also have access to the outside area at the back of the boat. Gold Class customers can also use this area if they wish.
Children
Children under 5 years old travel for free on the Dubai Ferry. Children aged 5 years or over pay the full adult ticket price. It is possible to use a pushchair on the Dubai Ferry.
Buying Tickets
You can buy your Dubai Ferry Tickets at the ferry terminus (each one has its own ticket office right next to where the ferry departs) and they can be paid for by either cash, debit or credit card or Nol card. Your Nol card will need to be charged up with the full fare beforehand.
You can also buy tickets from the RTA website.
The tourist trips run for around an hour so this is a quite good value for a tour of the Dubai coastline.
There are also two spaces available for wheelchair users in the silver class area of the ferry.
The Dubai Ferry is also available for private hire – contact the RTA on 800 9090 for further information.

Hello – I am coming with my wife to Dubai for New Year and have read that the Dubai Ferry has silver class tickets for Dhh150 per person for a special round trip to view the new world record attempt firework display. Is it possible to purchase these tickets in advance please as we are arriving on the morning of the 31st December 2014 which will leave little time to purchase them in person. I really hope you will be able to assist me in purchasing these tickets as I would love to surprise my wife and have the best view of a wonderful event.
Many thanks for your kind assistance.

Hi, There. About the cruise on the evening of December 31 to enjoy the fireworks of Burj Al Arab and The Palm, has anything been announced for this year? Thank you.
I haven’t heard any announcements for 2014 yet.
The ferry seems to be accessible for someone in a wheelchair, is it correct and should we contact the Ferry before planning to take it?
It would be best to contact the RTA first to double check.

Sunil you could contact the RTA with regards to hiring the ferry for just your guests.

You don’t need to book in advance but as tickets are first come first served it’s best to get there early.
I was wondering if you could please let me know exactly where to buy the tickets for this from and how to get there from Dubai marina mall? And the times it’s likely to run on a Friday? Thank you.
Hi fareena and sorry for the delay in replying. You get tickets from the ferry terminal when you board. Come out of Dubai Marina Mall and turn left, go round the corner and you will see the ferry station, it’s not very far at all. Timings are listed on the website.
Could you please provide a route map from abu dhabi.
just check out Google maps to head from Abu Dhabi to either al Ghubaiba or Dubai Marina
http://www.rta.ae/wpsv5/links/marine/Ferry_Marina_Ghubaiba.jpg
That is a useful map thanks sanu, now that the RTA have changed the route to go from Al Ghubaiba to Dubai Marina and vice versa at 11am each day.
we are Family of 12 person wish to take ferry trip from Al Ghubaiba to Marina on 27th December at 5pm

Kindly advice how to purchase the ticket in advance.
Thanks
You don’t need to purchase the ticket in advance, just turn up shortly before the trip.
Hi…what about the price of al gubaiba to dubai marina…for return trip .. i saw here its 50 aed but i m confuse that 50 aed is for al gubaiba to dubai marna one way only .or for return also
50 dirhams is just for one way and you will need to pay the same to return.
