Boat crossing Mumbai harbour with the city in the distance

Gateway of India → Belapur Jetty

Mumbai to Navi Mumbai by speedboat

Two cities separated by a harbour and joined by a road that is congested for most of the day. The water crossing takes about forty minutes regardless of the hour, which is why this route is increasingly a commuter run rather than a leisure one.

Questions

Frequently asked

How long does the boat take from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai?

Thirty-five to forty-five minutes between the Gateway of India and Belapur jetty depending on sea state. Unlike the road, that time does not change with rush hour.

Is a speedboat faster than driving to Navi Mumbai?

In peak traffic, comfortably. Off-peak the road can be competitive on time. The consistency is the real benefit — the crossing takes the same time every trip.

Do you offer regular commuter bookings?

Yes. Repeat and corporate bookings on this route are quoted on a monthly basis, which works out considerably cheaper than individual charters.

Which jetty do you use in Navi Mumbai?

Belapur, which is the most practical access point for Vashi, Kharghar and Panvel. Other pickup points can be arranged with notice.
