Bostancı Terminal opened in 1987 and was one of İDO's first three ferry terminals along with Kabataş and Bakırköy.[3] In the 1990s, İDO expanded their ferry service greatly and ferries operated out of Bostancı to Kartal, Pendik, Yenikapı as well as Marmara and Avşa Island. The terminal itself consists of a terminal building, with six ferry slips and slips for layovers. Inside the terminal building are ticket offices, waiting areas and cafes.
