About the Hellesøy ferjekai – Tunsøy ferjekai crossing
15:05 on Tuesdays, and 0.1 nautical miles. Two hundred metres of water, crossed once a week — because this is not a route so much as one segment of a single Tuesday round that leaves Stavanger at 12:45 and is back at 16:10.
Where this leg falls
The ferry reaches the Stavanger islands from the city quay at 12:45, works outward through Steinsøy, Langøy, Lindøy, Tunsøy, Kalvøy, Uskakalven, Stolsvik, Rosenvik and Usken, turns at Hommersåk at 14:20, and retraces the whole line. The 15:05 is the homeward pass.
Why a car ferry at all
These islands are worked daily by express passenger boats out of Fiskepirterminalen. What those boats cannot carry is a vehicle, a delivery or a machine — and that is what Tuesday is for.
Listed to 4 January 2027
Around twenty-one Tuesdays remain. The five-minute duration on this leg is almost entirely ramp time at both ends.

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 Kolumbus, 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.
