About
About Vaxholm Västerhamnen
The imbalance here runs the other way from most. Vaxholm Västerhamnen sends 29 sailings a week to Rindö Smedja but receives 37 — eight more arrivals than departures on a 6 minute crossing.
Sailings start at 05:30 and finish at 23:00, with three day patterns covering the route. There is no second destination from this quay, and no boat at all between 23:00 and 05:30.
Vaxholm is the small town that grew up around the fortress guarding the northern approach to Stockholm, built on an islet in the channel and still standing in the middle of the water between the two quays. Västerhamnen is the western harbour, on the town side; SL runs the boats as scheduled transport, so the crossing works like a bus route rather than a ferry excursion.
