Haliç is a station on the M2 line of the Istanbul Metro.[1] It is a part of the Golden Horn Metro Bridge and is located between the districts of Fatih and Beyoğlu above the Golden Horn.

Haliç has two side platforms, one for each direction. İETT bus service can be accessed on both sides of the bridge from Tersane Street on the Beyoğlu side and Abdülezelpaşa Street on the Fatih side.
