About the Badore Ferry Terminal – Gberigbe crossing
One departure, at 17:30, Monday to Friday. It is the exact counterpart of the 06:30 inbound: same two landings, same 3.8 nautical miles, eleven hours apart.
A commute with no slack
Out at half past six in the morning, back at half past five in the evening. There is no second boat in either direction, so the working day is defined by the timetable rather than the other way round.
Fifteen minutes on the lagoon
Fifteen knots from the Badore terminal on the Lekki peninsula back across to Gberigbe. The road alternative at that hour is the reason anyone pays for the boat.
Listed to 21 April 2027
Nothing at the weekend. Ten sailings a week between the two directions, and missing either end means finding the road.
Vehicles, pets & onboard
- Passenger water buses
- Modern jetty terminals
- Licensed private ferries
- Life-jacket safety enforcement
Onboard facilities and vehicle, pet and luggage policies vary by operator and vessel; confirm details with the operator before booking.
