About the Vibrandsøy hurtigbåtkaiRøvær hurtigbåtkai crossing

07:55 runs seven days a week. 15:45 runs on Thursdays and 16:55 on weekdays. A Sunday therefore has one boat and it goes before eight in the morning.

Twelve knots over 5.2 nautical miles

25 minutes out from the Karmsund channel off Haugesund to Røvær, a small island community with a school, a chapel and about a hundred residents.

Thursday is the fullest day

Three sailings against a weekday’s two and a Sunday’s one. The 15:45 exists on no other day, which makes Thursday the only date with an afternoon option as well as an evening one.

2 August to 31 December 2026

Thirteen sailings a week. Vibrandsøy sits almost against the Haugesund town quay, which makes it the practical mainland end of this route rather than a destination.

Frequently asked questions

How many times a day does it sail?

3 sailings a day.

Does this ferry cross an international border?

No, it's entirely within Norway.

What time is the first sailing?

First departure is 07:55, last is 16:55.

Is there a ferry back from Røvær?

Yes — see the Røvær to Vibrandsøy ferry for the return schedule.

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 Kolumbus for the current tariff.

Can I do this as a day trip?

A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 25m and several sailings a day (first 07:55, last 16:55), 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?

Kolumbus 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 Kolumbus, 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.
