About Vesterålen

Vesterålen is the archipelago just north of Lofoten where the drama softens into wide beaches, whale-rich seas and fishing villages that tourism has barely polished. Andenes, at its northern tip, is Norway's whale-watching capital and the terminus of the summer car ferry across to Gryllefjord on Senja.

Frequently asked questions

Which operator provides this service?

Svipper operates this route.

How long, roughly, is the crossing?

About 1h 40m under normal conditions.

Is this a domestic or international route?

Domestic — the whole crossing stays within Norway.

What's the sailing frequency per day?

3 sailings a day on this route.

Is there a ferry back from Andenes?

What time is the first sailing?

First departure is 11:00, last is 19:00.

How much does a ticket cost?

On most Norwegian road-network ferries, foot passengers and cyclists travel free; cars and larger vehicles are charged automatically via AutoPASS by vehicle length and crossing, so there is no single ticket price. Register an AutoPASS ferry account in advance for a discount, and check Svipper for the current tariff.

Can I do this as a day trip?

A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 1h 40m and several sailings a day (first 11:00, last 19:00), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.

Does the ferry run all year?

Sailings run daily, and frequency can change between the summer and winter seasons. The timetable above shows the latest published departures — confirm with the operator for off-season dates.

Can I take a car on this ferry?

Svipper does not list vehicle space on this service — plan to travel as a foot passenger. If you need to bring a car, check with the operator for alternative crossings.

Can I take a pet on this ferry?

Most ferry operators allow pets on this route, usually in a carrier, on deck or in designated pet areas or cabins, and registered assistance dogs travel free. Rules and any fees vary by operator and vessel — check with Svipper, so declare your pet when booking.

What's the luggage allowance?

Foot passengers can normally bring their own luggage aboard at no extra charge, with racks or a luggage area near the entrance, and there is usually no airline-style weight limit. Oversized or excess items may carry a fee, so check with the operator if you are travelling with bulky baggage.
