About
About Varaldsøy ferjekai
Varaldsøy is an island served from two different mainland points, and the boats do not treat them alike. Gjermundshamn is 2.2 nautical miles away and sends 22 sailings a week here against 16 going back; Årsnes is 2.4 nautical miles off with 19 departures out and 13 arrivals in.
Journey times run 15 minutes to Gjermundshamn and 20 to 21 minutes to Årsnes. Six day patterns cover each route, and sailings span 00:30 to 23:30.
The island lies in the Hardangerfjord in Vestland, and the two crossings belong to a single triangular route rather than to two separate shuttles — which is what produces the mismatch between arrivals and departures on each leg. Skyss operates the service as a vehicle ferry; planning a return means checking both mainland quays, not just the one you left from.
