The popular routes covered in Lagos waterways include Falomo to Ikorodu, Marina to Ojo/Badagry/Sabo Koji/Mile2/Ofin/Lekki/Ebute Ero, and Ofin to Badagary, amongst others. Also, it costs roughly N150 – N1300 to move around Lagos depending on your destination, making the waterway transportation sought after. However, the downside of the ride is the possibility of it being cancelled or delayed because of bad weather, especially during the rainy season. If you’re interested in Lagos waterways but know little about it, we have you covered. Some ferries are owned by private individuals or agencies, while some others are owned by the state government’s agencies. Uber, for example, launched a boat service in Lagos around October last year.
