About the Gberigbe – Badore Ferry Terminal crossing
06:30, Monday to Friday. A single departure covering 3.8 nautical miles in 15 minutes into the Badore terminal on the Lekki peninsula.
Half past six and no alternative
The hour puts arrivals in Badore before seven, ahead of the road traffic this route exists to avoid. There is no second morning boat and nothing in the afternoon.
About 15 knots on the lagoon
Fast enough to make the distance irrelevant. The same ground by road can take an hour or more at that time of the morning, which is the whole case for the boat.
Badore has more than one landing
Our data holds separate entries for the Badore ferry terminal and the Badore jetty, with different timetables against each; this listing runs to 21 April 2027. A schedule found for one does not apply to the other, and the names are close enough to be worth checking twice.
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.
