CityFerry is an inner city ferry service operated in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia by TransdevTSL Brisbane Ferries, a joint venture of Brisbane City Council and French company, Transdev. CityFerry covers a smaller area than the CityCat ferry service with stops spaced closer together, and is operated with 12 monohull ferries, varying slightly in appearance from one another instead of catamarans.

The monohulls also operate cross river services between Bulimba and Teneriffe, between Norman Park and New Farm Park,and between Kangaroo Point and the Brisbane CBD.
