About the Andenes ferjekai – Gryllefjord ferjekai crossing
Andenes and Gryllefjord are separated by approximately 20 nautical miles across the Andfjorden in northern Norway. This domestic car ferry link is operated by Svipper with a crossing time of 1 hour 40 minutes. The service provides a critical summer connection, replacing a long road journey around the fjord system.
There are three sailings every day, with the first departure at 08:45 and the last at 17:00. Fares are integrated into Norway's AutoPASS system for vehicles, based on length. The route connects two key points on the Norwegian Scenic Route Andøya and Norwegian Scenic Route Senja.
Your destination
About Senja
Norway's second-largest island has one road worth driving, two ways in by sea, and a booking system for neither of them that works the way you expect. The famous crossing from Andenes cannot be reserved — you queue for it. The express boat from Tromsø can be reserved, and from February 2026 it effectively must be. Getting to Senja is a scheduling exercise before it is a scenic one.
