Creek Metro Station is G30 on Dubai Metro’s Green Line and sits at the line’s Creek terminus in the Al Jaddaf area. It is especially useful for travellers heading toward Al Jaddaf Marine Station, Dubai Creek Harbour, Dubai Festival City, Mohammed Bin Rashid Library,  and other waterfront destinations. RTA’s network map confirms G30 as Creek, while its current transport information also connects the station with marine services at Al Jaddaf.

The important point is that Creek Metro Station and Dubai Creek Harbour are not the same location. From the metro station, you can continue toward the waterfront by marine transport, taxi, or other onward connections. The planned Dubai Metro Blue Line will also create a direct interchange at Creek in the future, with RTA targeting completion in 2029.

Creek Metro Station Quick Facts

RTA official metro map lists G29 Al Jadaf followed by G30 Creek, confirming Creek as the Green Line terminus.

Where Is Creek Metro Station?

Creek Metro Station is in Al Jaddaf, Dubai, near Dubai Creek and the Al Jaddaf waterfront. RTA identifies the station as G30 on the Green Line.

The station is particularly useful because several transport options come together around this part of Dubai. The nearby Al Jaddaf Marine Station provides marine transport, including the air-conditioned abra service toward Dubai Festival City. RTA states that the marine station is about one minute from Creek Metro Station. This location also makes Creek an important starting point for people visiting the wider Creek area.

If you are using a navigation app, search for Creek Metro Station, Dubai rather than simply searching “Dubai Creek.” The latter can return many different points along the waterway.

Which Metro Line Is Creek Metro Station On?

Creek Metro Station is on the Dubai Metro Green Line and has the station code G30. It is the southern/eastern terminus of the current Green Line, with trains running north from Creek toward Al Jadaf, Dubai Healthcare City, Oud Metha, BurJuman, Deira and e&.

The station sequence immediately before Creek is:

G28 Dubai Healthcare City → G29 Al Jadaf → G30 Creek

So if you are travelling from Deira or Bur Dubai toward Creek, simply remain on the Green Line train heading toward Creek.

If you are already at Creek and want to travel toward Deira, BurJuman, or e&, board the train in the opposite direction shown on the station signs.

Creek Metro Station Timings 2026

RTA publishes network operating hours for Dubai Metro. The standard schedule currently shown by RTA is:

RTA notes that operating hours can change for Ramadan, public holidays, major events, and other special occasions.

There is an important difference between network operating hours and the precise arrival of the first or last train at Creek. The published RTA timetable gives Creek-specific arrival information, and the exact train time can vary by direction and day.

For a journey close to closing time, check the current RTA timetable or S’hail journey planner rather than relying only on a general station-hours table. RTA provides a journey-planning service for current departure information.

First and Last Train at Creek Metro Station

Creek is the end of the Green Line, so trains arriving at G30 terminate there.

RTA’s published Green Line timetable gives the following arrival times at Creek from the e& direction in its timetable:

These are timetable arrival figures at Creek rather than a promise that every passenger can board a train at exactly those times. RTA also notes that timings can vary during special events and occasions.

For a late-night trip, check the same-day RTA timetable before travelling.

Creek Metro Station Exits

Knowing the exit can save you a lot of walking, particularly if you are heading to the marine station.

A current station guide identifies three main exits and their practical destinations.

Which Exit Is Best for Al Jaddaf Marine Station?

Exit 2 is the useful one if you are transferring from the metro to the marine network.

The station guide specifically identifies Exit 2 as providing access to Al Jaddaf Marine Transport Station.

That is the connection you need if your next leg is an abra toward Dubai Festival City or a marine service toward Dubai Creek Harbour.

Which Exit Is Best for Mohammed Bin Rashid Library?

Exit 1 provides street-level access toward the Al Jaddaf and Mohammed Bin Rashid Library side of the area.

Because the exact walking route can depend on your destination entrance, follow the station signs after leaving the platform rather than choosing an exit solely from a map pin.

Creek Metro Station to Al Jaddaf Marine Station

This is one of the most useful connections at Creek.

RTA says Al Jaddaf Marine Station is one minute from Creek Metro Station. The authority also operates an air-conditioned abra service from Al Jaddaf Marine Station to Dubai Festival City.

The connection works like this:

Creek Metro Station → Exit 2 → Al Jaddaf Marine Station → marine transport

The marine station is therefore not a separate,  distant transport hub. It is directly linked to the metro station area.

Creek Metro Station to Dubai Creek Harbour

This is where many online guides become confusing.

Creek Metro Station is not located inside Dubai Creek Harbour.

Instead, the metro station provides access to the wider Creek waterfront, while marine services connect Al Jaddaf Marine Station with Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Station.

RTA’s current marine timetable lists:

• CR11: Al Jaddaf Marine Station ↔ Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Station
• CR9: Dubai Festival City Marine Station ↔ Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Station
• BM2: Al Jaddaf Marine Station ↔ Dubai Festival City Marine Station

The practical route

If you are travelling by metro:

Green Line → Creek Metro Station → Exit 2 → Al Jaddaf Marine Station → CR11 → Dubai Creek Harbour

This is the clearest public-transport connection between the metro station and Creek Harbour.

RTA’s current marine information lists CR11 between Al Jaddaf and Dubai Creek Harbour at AED 2 per person, per one-way trip. Its published timetable currently gives different operating periods by day, so check the live marine schedule before travelling.

Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Route

RTA currently lists CR11 Al Jaddaf Marine Station–Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Station as part of its abra network.

RTA also lists CR9 between Dubai Festival City and Dubai Creek Harbour. This means visitors can use the marine network from more than one direction.

The exact service pattern is important because not every route operates every day.

For example, RTA’s current published promotion lists CR9 for Saturday and Sunday, while CR11 has a broader operating schedule.

So don’t assume that seeing “Dubai Creek Harbour ferry” online means a boat will be running at any time you arrive.

Creek Metro Station to Dubai Festival City

You can also continue from Creek toward Dubai Festival City by using the nearby Al Jaddaf Marine Station.

RTA’s air-conditioned abra service BM2 runs between Al Jaddaf Marine Station and Dubai Festival City Marine Station. RTA lists the fare as AED 2 per person per one-way trip.

RTA’s dedicated Al Jaddaf Marine Station information says the Creek Metro Station is about one minute away and describes the air-conditioned abra trip to Dubai Festival City as taking about six minutes.

This makes the metro-to-marine connection particularly useful for visitors who want to combine a Green Line journey with a short ride across Dubai Creek.

Can You Walk From Creek Metro Station to Dubai Creek Harbour?

You can travel around the wider waterfront on foot, but walking is not the most practical default connection for reaching Dubai Creek Harbour from the metro station.

The more useful public-transport option is:

Creek Metro → Al Jaddaf Marine Station → CR11 → Dubai Creek Harbour

You can also use a taxi for a direct road journey. I would not publish a fixed walking time for the entire trip because the route, destination within Creek Harbour, and current pedestrian access can affect the journey.

Creek Metro Station to BurJuman

BurJuman is the key Green Line interchange if you need to switch to the Red Line from Creek.

From Creek, take the Green Line toward e& and travel through:

Al Jadaf → Dubai Healthcare City → Oud Metha → BurJuman

RTA’s station map identifies G26 BurJuman as a Green Line station and R19 BurJuman as the Red Line interchange.

Read More: BurJuman Metro Station

Creek Metro Station to Union

Union is the other station where the Red and Green lines meet.

From Creek, stay on the Green Line toward e& until Union (G20). RTA’s metro map lists Union as G20 on the Green Line and R18 on the Red Line.

Union can be useful when your onward destination is better served from the Red Line’s northern section.

For passengers coming from Deira, the Green Line is often the straightforward way to reach Creek without changing lines.

Creek Metro Station to Dubai International Airport

There is no direct metro ride from Creek to Dubai International Airport terminals because the airport terminals are served by the Red Line.

The practical route is:

Creek → Green Line → Union or BurJuman → Red Line → Airport Terminal 1 or Airport Terminal 3

At either interchange, follow the Red Line signs toward the airport.

RTA’s network map confirms the airport stations on the Red Line and the two Green/Red interchange stations at Union and BurJuman.If you have heavy luggage or a flight at an unusual hour, check the current train schedule before leaving.

Creek Metro Station to Dubai Mall

Dubai Mall is not directly connected to Creek by the same metro line.

Take the Green Line from Creek to BurJuman or Union, change to the Red Line and continue toward Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall.

The route is simple, but the total journey time depends on the train wait, interchange,  and walking time. For an exact same-day journey, use RTA’s journey planner rather than relying on a fixed travel-time figure.

Creek Metro Station Facilities

The station provides access to Dubai’s wider integrated transport system, but the most important feature for visitors is its connection with marine transport.

For accessibility, use the station’s lifts, ramps and designated accessible routes. If you need a specific step-free path, follow the accessibility signage inside the station or ask RTA staff.

Bus Services at Creek Metro Station

Creek also has a road-based public transport connection.

A current station guide identifies C04 as a bus route serving the Creek area, with destinations including Gold Souq Bus Station, Al Jaddaf, Latifa Hospital, Wafi Mall, Rashid Hospital and Union Metro Station.

Bus routes can change more frequently than metro lines. For that reason, the safest approach is to check the current RTA journey planner or S’hail information on the day of travel rather than relying on an old blog’s bus timetable. RTA provides a journey-planning service for current routes and departures.

Creek Metro Station and Nol Card

Dubai Metro journeys use the Nol public transport payment system.

If you are travelling by metro and then continuing by bus or marine transport, check the payment requirements for each leg before starting the journey.

For the marine services connecting Al Jaddaf with Dubai Festival City and Dubai Creek Harbour, RTA currently publishes AED 2 per person per one-way trip for the listed abra routes. Do not assume that every marine service uses the same fare or operating pattern. RTA publishes route-specific information.

Is Creek Metro Station the Same as Al Jadaf Metro Station?

No. They are two separate Green Line stations.

RTA’s official network map lists:

• G29 — Al Jadaf
• G30 — Creek

with Creek immediately after Al Jadaf on the line. The names can confuse because both stations serve the Al Jaddaf/Creek area.

If you need the marine connection to Dubai Festival City or Dubai Creek Harbour, Creek is the station you should check first, because the Al Jaddaf Marine Station is immediately beside Creek Metro Station.

Creek Metro Station vs Al Jadaf Metro Station

For a visitor going to the marine station, Creek is generally the more useful stop because RTA places the Al Jaddaf Marine Station about one minute away.

Places Near Creek Metro Station

The station sits in an area where transport, waterfront,t and cultural destinations overlap.

Mohammed Bin Rashid Library

The library is one of the prominent landmarks associated with the Al Jaddaf side of the station. Current station information identifies Exit 1 as the access side for the Al Jaddaf and Mohammed Bin Rashid Library area.

Al Jaddaf Waterfront

The waterfront area around Al Jaddaf contains residential developments, restaurants,s and walking areas.

The marine network also makes this part of Dubai useful for visitors who want to combine a metro journey with a boat ride.

Dubai Creek

The station is close to Dubai Creek, which is why it can serve as a practical starting point for exploring the waterway.

Dubai Creek Harbour

Creek Harbour is not directly outside the metro station. The marine connection through Al Jaddaf is the important link.

Future Dubai Metro Blue Line at Creek

The future Dubai Metro Blue Line is one of the most significant changes planned for this area. RTA says the Blue Line will include an interchange at Creek Station on the Green Line, located in Al Jaddaf. The planned route will then pass through Dubai Festival City, Dubai Creek Harbour and Ras Al Khor before continuing toward International City and other destinations.

RTA states that the Blue Line is scheduled for completion in 2029.

It should not be presented as an existing metro connection for someone travelling to Creek today. For a current trip in 2026, the Green Line and existing marine services remain the relevant transport options.

Is Creek Metro Station Good for Dubai Creek Harbour?

Yes, but with one important qualification: Creek Metro Station is a gateway to Creek Harbour rather than a metro station inside the district.

For public transport, the useful route is:

Creek Metro Station → Al Jaddaf Marine Station → CR11 → Dubai Creek Harbour Marine Station.

RTA currently lists CR11 between Al Jaddaf and Dubai Creek Harbour and gives a fare of AED 2 per person per one-way trip.

The future Blue Line will eventually provide a much more direct rail connection between the Creek interchange and Dubai Creek Harbour.

Tips for Using Creek Metro Station

• First, check the destination shown on the Green Line train. If you are leaving Creek, the direction is toward e&.
• Second, use Exit 2 if the marine station is your next stop. It is the most useful exit for the Al Jaddaf Marine Transport Station.
• Third, check marine timings separately. Metro and marine transport have different schedules, and the Creek Harbour routes do not all operate on the same days.
• Fourth, don’t rely on old timetable screenshots. RTA changes schedules for Ramadan, public holidays, special events, and other occasions.

Finally, check your route before leaving the station. If your final destination is beyond the metro network, deciding between the bus, marine transport, and taxi can save considerable walking.

How to Reach Creek Metro Station from Major Areas

Final Takeaway

Creek Metro Station is G30, the Green Line terminus in Al Jaddaf. Its biggest practical advantage is not just the metro itself. The station sits beside Al Jaddaf Marine Station, giving passengers an easy connection to Dubai Festival City and Dubai Creek Harbour through RTA’s marine network.

For Dubai Creek Harbour, remember the route: Creek Metro → Exit 2 → Al Jaddaf Marine Station → CR11 when the service is operating. For Red Line destinations, change at BurJuman or Union.

The planned Blue Line will change the picture again, with RTA targeting 2029 completion and a direct Creek interchange serving Dubai Creek Harbour and surrounding areas. Until then, the Green Line and existing marine connections are the routes to use.
