About the Hellesøy hurtigbåtkai – Tunsøy hurtigbåtkai crossing
Two hundred metres of water and twenty departures to cover it, none of which runs every day. The service spans 00:22 to 22:54 across six different day patterns.
The passenger version of a weekly ferry
These are the express-boat quays. The car ferry between the same two islands runs once a week, on a Tuesday, as one leg of a chain out of Stavanger. This service runs most days and takes nobody’s vehicle.
Two minutes, and odd minutes throughout
00:22, 22:54 — every departure sits on a minute set by a rotation working the Stavanger islands rather than by anything at this pair of quays.
2 August 2026 to 3 January 2027
Six calendars for twenty sailings means the day of the week decides almost everything here. There is no pattern to memorise, only a date to check.

20 sailings a day on this route.
How long is the ferry ride?
Around 2m, depending on sea conditions.
Is a return sailing available?

Do I need a passport for this ferry?

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 Kolumbus for the current tariff.
Can I do this as a day trip?
A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 2m and several sailings a day (first 00:22, last 22:54), 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?
Kolumbus 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 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.
