Multi-stop ferry trip planner
Chain together up to five ferry ports and the planner maps your route, finds which legs sail direct, and adds up the crossing time, distance and a rough CO₂ estimate. Build island-hops and coastal journeys, then share the itinerary with a link.
Add ports to your trip
Search 590+ connected ferry ports and chain up to 5 stops.

How the planner works
1. Add your ports
Search 590+ connected ferry ports and add them in travel order — up to five stops.
2. See the connections
Each leg is checked for a direct sailing, with crossing time and distance rolled up live.
3. Share the plan
Your itinerary lives in the URL — copy the link to revisit or send it on.
Why plan a multi-stop ferry trip?
The best ferry journeys rarely run point to point. Island-hopping a coastline, linking the fjords or stringing together a chain of islands means juggling several crossings, each with its own timetable and operator. Seeing the whole route at once — which hops sail direct, how long you'll spend at sea and where you'll need an onward connection — turns a tangle of separate searches into a single plan.
Start from a ready-made itinerary or build your own from any of the network's connected ports. Every direct leg links straight to its full timetable, so you can drop from the big picture into the exact departure times in a click.
Frequently asked questions
How does the ferry trip planner work?
Add ports in the order you want to travel — up to five stops. For each leg the planner checks our route graph for a direct sailing, then totals the crossing time, straight-line distance and a rough CO₂ figure. Every itinerary has its own shareable link.
What does a “direct leg” mean?
A direct leg is a pair of consecutive stops that has a scheduled ferry running between them. If two stops have no direct sailing, the planner flags it so you know you'll need an onward connection to bridge the gap.
Can I share or bookmark my itinerary?
Yes. The page URL updates as you build the trip (for example ?stops=bergen,stavanger), so you can copy the link, bookmark it or send it to a travel companion and they'll see the same itinerary.
Does the planner show ticket prices?
Not yet — the planner focuses on routing, timings and connections. For fares, open the individual route timetable from any direct leg and check the operator listed there.
How accurate are the distance and CO₂ figures?
Distance uses each crossing's published nautical distance where we have it, and otherwise a straight-line estimate between ports, so the real sailed distance is usually a little longer. The CO₂ figure is a rough estimate based on average ferry emissions and is meant for comparison, not precise accounting.
