About
About Iya Afin Jetty
Both directions leave at 07:00. The crossing to Izigi is 1.6 nautical miles and 30 minutes, six sailings a week each way, and the identical departure time on each side means two boats set off towards each other and pass mid-creek.
Thirty minutes for a mile and a half is slow water — a loaded canoe or a small outboard working a channel rather than an open crossing.
Iya Afin is on the Lagos side of the creeks that run west towards Badagry, in the belt of riverside villages between the lagoon and the Republic of Benin. The name is Yoruba and refers to a woman of the palace household; like many landings here it identifies a family compound rather than a settlement, which is why the jetty appears in the timetable under a name no map will show.
