About the Skrova hurtigbåtkai – Svolvær hurtigbåtkai crossing
One departure at 21:10 runs Monday to Saturday; another at 22:10 runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They overlap on Friday and Saturday, which are the only nights carrying both, and Sunday has the later one alone.
Fifteen minutes into Lofoten's main town
The crossing covers 4.4 nautical miles from Skrova, a small island east of Austvågøya, to Svolvær. At express pace it is a short hop, and the evening timing makes it a return service rather than an outbound one.
Both sailings are late
Nothing on this pairing runs before nine at night. Anyone crossing to Svolvær earlier in the day uses a different service or the car ferry, and comes back on one of these two.
Current plan
The listed departures run to 31 January 2027. On a two-sailing route the difference between a Thursday and a Friday is the difference between one option and two.

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?
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.
