About the Skrolsvik hurtigbåtkai – Sandsøy hurtigbåtkai crossing
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday — those are the only days this crossing runs, three sailings a week across two separate sheets.
Two departures, at 17:40 and 18:25, cover eight nautical miles in 30 to 35 minutes — both in the early evening, 45 minutes apart.
Skrolsvik is at the southern tip of Senja, Norway's second-largest island, and Sandsøy is one of the smaller islands in the Vågsfjorden between Senja and Harstad. Sandsøy has a permanent population in the dozens and a church that serves several of the surrounding islands. An evening-only service on three days is the county maintaining a link rather than running a route — the morning traffic, where there is any, goes another way.

Svipper 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 Svipper, 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.
