Boat to Røvær

The boat to Røvær is operated by Kolumbus, and has several daily departures. The crossing from the centre of Haugesund to the island takes about 25 minutes. Some services also stop at Vibrandsøy and Feøy, which means that the boat takes a little longer.

Where do I buy a ticket?

Tickets can be purchased on board the boat or in the Kolumbus app. Children under the age of six travel free of charge, and students and senior citizens travel at half price. We always recommend that you book your ticket in advance so that you are guaranteed a seat (remember to also book a return ticket), and it is also cheaper than buying a ticket on board.
