The number of ferry passengers in Istanbul, Turkey's most populous city, increased by five percent between 2022 and 2023 and amounted to around 40 million passengers, remaining still below the pre-pandemic level of 43.4 million travelers. Ferries are one of the most important modes of transportation in Istanbul since the city is divided by a sea lane called the Bosporus, located between the European and Asian continents.
