About the Tussøy – Sandneshamn kai crossing
06:55 and 16:45 Monday to Friday; 18:25 on Saturdays and Sundays. The weekday pair brackets a working day almost exactly; the weekend gets a single evening crossing instead.
Five minutes over 1.4 nautical miles
A short hop from the island of Tussøy to Sandneshamn on Kvaløya, west of Tromsø. At seventeen knots the boat is across before there is much to look at.
Ten hours between the two
Five to seven in the morning and quarter to five in the afternoon. That gap is the shape of a shift, and it is why the route reads as a commuter service rather than an island connection.
Listed to 30 December
Twelve sailings a week through the autumn. The weekend hour — twenty-five past six in the evening — matches neither weekday time, so a Saturday plan needs its own arithmetic.

Frequently asked questions
When's the last ferry of the day?
The last sailing leaves at 18:25.
Who operates the service?
Svipper runs this crossing.
Does this ferry cross an international border?
No, it's entirely within Norway.
How many times a day does it sail?
3 sailings a day.
Can I book the return crossing too?

How long does the crossing take?
About 5m.
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 Svipper 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 06:55, last 18:25), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.
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?
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.
