About the Reine hurtigbåtkai – Rostad hurtigbåtkai crossing
One departure runs every day, at 15:00. The other six are conditional: two Monday to Friday at 10:00 and 14:15, two on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at 13:30 and 17:05, one on Thursdays at 13:00, and one on Fridays at 20:30.
Four boats inside two hours
On a Friday the 13:30, 14:15, 15:00 and 17:05 sailings are all available; on a Tuesday only the 10:00, 14:15 and 15:00 exist. The middle of the afternoon is where the calendars pile up, and where reading by hour alone goes wrong.
Fifteen minutes in the Lofoten islands
The crossing covers 2 nautical miles from Reine, on Moskenesøya, across to Rostad. Short as it is, there is no road link, so the boat is the connection rather than a shortcut around one.
Current plan
The listed departures run to 31 January 2027. The Friday sailing at 20:30 is the latest departure the route offers on any day — the next-latest, at 17:05, runs only from Friday to Sunday.

How much does a ticket cost?

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?
Nordland fylkeskommune 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 Nordland fylkeskommune, 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.
