About the Epe Ayetoro Jetty – Iwopin (Ogun) crossing
16:30, Monday to Saturday, 13.4 nautical miles, 110 minutes. Seven knots, which on a lagoon this size means a working boat rather than a fast one — and an arrival after six in the evening.
Crossing a state line by water
Epe is in Lagos State; Iwopin is in Ogun. The road between them runs a long way inland around the head of the lagoon, which is why a two-hour boat is competitive at all.
One departure, late in the day
Nothing in the morning and nothing at midday. Half past four is a going-home hour, and the timetable is built for people returning rather than arriving.
Valid to 21 April 2027
Sunday carries no service. The same jetty handles much shorter runs — the 13:30 to Abomiti-Nla covers eight miles in an hour — so the landing is busier than this single sailing suggests.
