1st January
On Wednesday 01/01/2020, Dubai Ferry will operate at Ghubaiba and Marina stations at 01:00 pm, 03:00 pm, 05:00 pm and 06:30 pm.

At Sheikh Zayed Road Station, the Ferry will be in service from 04:00 pm to 10:00 pm.
The route covered by the Al Ghubaiba ferry for the circular trip at 5pm is shown below. However, note that the route may be subject to change. The 3pm trip stays within Dubai Creek.
Also on the Timetable it says at 3pm: “stays within the creek”
WHY did the 3pm tour go outside the creek? Without any information before! Also this post here, no information about changing the route.
Really bad experience outside.
I wanted to have another ticket for the 6:30 tour, of course with no additional costs. But your colleagues said not possible. Why do I buy a ticket for a tour, and then I do not get what I booked?
I can send you the tickets if you want.
Hi Thomas, this site is not run by the RTA. We endeavor to provide information as accurately as possible but there are times when routes/times change and we do not have that information. If in any doubt about the route/timings etc then passengers are advised to call the RTA in advance to check the Ferry sailing information. We will of course change the information on the site in light of what you have said.
