About
About Kalmar Länstrafik
Kalmar Länstrafik (KLT) is the public transport authority for Kalmar County in south-east Sweden. Among its services is a seasonal summer boat across the Kalmarsund to the island of Öland — a nostalgic revival of the ferry link that existed before the Öland Bridge opened in 1972.
Kalmar to Färjestaden
The passenger boat crosses the Kalmarsund between Kalmar and Färjestaden on Öland, the strait now spanned by the long Öland Bridge. Running in the summer season, it is especially popular with cyclists, letting them cross the water rather than the bridge on their way to Öland's beaches and windmills.
Service and fares
The seasonal boat carries foot passengers and bicycles under KLT's regional ticket system. Fares are in Swedish kronor, on the standard county transit ticket.
