About

About Amsterdam, Pontsteiger

Two free GVB ferries leave from Pontsteiger and they finish more than an hour apart. The NDSM-werf boats run until 23:40; the Distelweg boats stop at 22:52. If you are coming back late from the north bank, only one of the two is still an option.

Both crossings take 5 minutes. NDSM-werf is 0.6 nautical miles across the IJ with 80 departures and 79 arrivals a week, while Distelweg is 0.4 nautical miles away with 66 in each direction. Nothing starts before 06:20.

Pontsteiger is on the Houthavens side, west of Central Station, beneath the arch-shaped apartment block that gives the landing its name. The ferries carry bicycles and mopeds as a matter of course, take no fare, and run on two or three overlapping day patterns depending on the route — the NDSM service adds a separate weekend calendar that Distelweg does not have.
