About the Tromsø Prostneset hurtigbåtkai – Tennskjær hurtigbåtkai crossing
One departure, three days a week, leaving Prostneset at 07:05. The boat covers 17 nautical miles in 35 minutes out from central Tromsø into the island belt to the west.
Seventeen miles in thirty-five minutes
That works out near thirty knots. On a route running three mornings a week the speed is what makes the connection usable: it puts passengers on the far side early enough for a working day rather than partway through one.
An alternating-day pattern
Monday, Wednesday and Friday — every other working day rather than a block. That shape usually means the vessel serves a different set of quays on Tuesdays and Thursdays, splitting one week between two routes.
Current plan
The sailing is listed to 30 December 2026. Nothing runs at the weekend, so a Friday departure means either a return on another service or two nights on the islands.
