The rise of eco-conscious urban transportation is redefining how cities utilize waterways, positioning the global water taxi market as a viable alternative to congested road networks. In 2024, the water taxi industry was estimated at USD 24.1 billion and is expected to grow steadily to USD 33.2 billion by 2034, reflecting a CAGR of 3.4%. The Asia-Pacific region, led by China and Singapore, is at the forefront, embracing electric and hybrid water taxis and smart docking solutions. Meanwhile, North America continues to expand services in metropolitan waterfronts, and Europe is witnessing strong growth driven by sustainability mandates and urban waterway integration. Increased daily commuter adoption, tourist-focused services and rising green propulsion adoption are notable trends supporting market expansion.
