About the Risøy kai – Gangsøy kai crossing
09:45 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; 13:20 on Wednesdays; 14:30 on Fridays; 15:30 on Mondays. Four departures and every one carries a different calendar.
Three days, and four of them empty
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday have nothing at all. Monday, Wednesday and Friday each get two sailings, and no two of those days share the same second boat.
Five minutes, distance not recorded
Our data holds no distance for this crossing. In the Solund islands of western Vestland the hops are short and the boats work several quays in sequence, so five minutes is plausible — but the figure is missing rather than small.
24 July to 11 December 2026
Six sailings a week for five months. The pairing of a morning boat with an afternoon one on the same three days is what makes a day trip possible at all.

Frequently asked questions
Does this ferry cross an international border?
No, it's entirely within Norway.
How long does the crossing take?
About 5m.
When's the last ferry of the day?
The last sailing leaves at 15:30.
Which company runs this ferry?
Operated by Skyss.
How many sailings run each day?
4 sailings a day, every day.
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 09:45, last 15:30), 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.
