Marítim is a metro station of the Metrovalencia network in Valencia, Spain, and is the terminus of Lines 5, 6, 7, and 8. It was opened on April 3, 2007, as an extension of Line 5 to connect with the existing surface tram lines to the east. This occurs via an underground cross-platform transfer on one of two island platforms. The southernmost platform is not in revenue use and does not have cross-platform fare gates. The station is located in a wide median space of Carrer Jeroni de Montsoriu. At the east end of the station, the tram tracks ramp up to street level and follow Carrer de Francesc Cubells.

When the station was originally opened, it had the name "Marítim-Serrería" and served only Line 5 (metro and tram). However, when many stations across Metrovalencia were being renamed with the opening of Line 10 in 2022, the name was changed to only "Marítim".[3]
