About the Hufthamar båtkai – Sandtorv crossing
Two departures, at 08:03 and 17:02, Monday to Friday. The crossing takes 5 minutes over about 1.2 nautical miles, and the two times tell you exactly what it is for: one boat at the start of the working day and one at the end of it.
Nothing in between, nothing at the weekend
There is no midday sailing and no Saturday or Sunday service. A route with two departures nine hours apart is not a transport option in the general sense — it is a fixed commute, and anyone whose day does not fit that shape needs a different crossing.
Times to the minute
Departures at 08:03 and 17:02 rather than on the hour are a sign of a boat working to connections on land. The odd minutes are not sloppiness; they are what the bus or the onward sailing at the far end requires.
Current plan
The listed departures run to 11 December 2026. On a two-sailing weekday timetable there is no margin at all, so confirm before travelling rather than turning up.

How do I get back from Sandtorv?

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 Skyss for the current tariff.
Can I do this as a day trip?
A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 5m and several sailings a day (first 08:03, last 17:02), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.
Does the ferry run all year?
Sailings operate on selected days, 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?
Skyss 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 Skyss, 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.
