• Book the return with the outbound - open returns and round-trip fares are cheaper on many operators

Timetable and season of the Bergen to Hirtshals ferry

Several a week - that is how often the ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals runs, with more departures in summer and fewer, sometimes weather-dependent, in winter. Allow about 19 hours at sea plus check-in at the port. Timetables change between seasons, so we send the exact departures for your travel date rather than a list that may be out of date.

Sea conditions matter on this route: strong winds can delay or cancel high-speed boats while the conventional ferries keep sailing. When the forecast is poor we tell you and, if you prefer, book the steadier vessel.

Departure: Bergen Fjord Line terminal (Skoltegrunnskaien)

The ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals leaves from Bergen Fjord Line terminal (Skoltegrunnskaien), in Bergen - Bergen is the fjord capital of Norway, with the Bryggen wharf, the fish market and the Fløibanen funicular. Foot passengers should be at the port 45 to 60 minutes before departure; vehicles typically 60 to 90 minutes, earlier on international crossings where passports are checked. Getting there: The light-rail Bybanen runs from Bergen Airport to the centre in about 45 minutes and the airport coach is a little faster, both good options for one traveller with light bags; a private car is the direct choice for families, groups, late arrivals and fjord day trips, and takes about 30 minutes to the centre.

• Foot passengers: at the port 45-60 minutes before departure; vehicles 60-90 minutes
• Keep the electronic ticket and the ID or passport used for booking together
• Luggage is carried free within the operator's limits; large bags go on the racks or the car deck
• Cafés, kiosks and waiting halls at Bergen Fjord Line terminal (Skoltegrunnskaien); some fast boats board only minutes before sailing

Arrival: Hirtshals ferry terminal, Denmark

You step off at Hirtshals ferry terminal, Denmark. Taxis and buses meet the boats. If you would rather not think about it, we book a driver to meet the ferry and take you to the door of your hotel.

Onward journeys from Hirtshals - another ferry, a flight or a train the same day - can be added to the booking; let us know and we time the crossing to fit.

On board the Bergen to Hirtshals ferry: seats, cabins, cars and luggage

The ship makes the difference on this route: the conventional ferry has more space, open decks and a steadier ride; the high-speed boat has airline seating and gets you there faster. Both types on this route carry vehicles on some sailings; we tell you which. Children have their own fares, luggage travels free within limits, and pets are accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels.

• Children's fares by age; infants generally free
• Pets accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels - tell us if one is travelling
• Seats: economy, airline-style, lounge and business on the fast boats; deck seats on the slow ferries
• Cabins with beds and showers on overnight sailings - two to four berths

Things to do in Hirtshals after the ferry

Best time to take the ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals

Every season has its case for Hirtshals. On the water, the season shows in sea conditions and availability more than in comfort: book early for summer, Easter and holiday weekends between Bergen and Hirtshals, and choose morning sailings when the wind is forecast.

Ferry or flight from Bergen to Hirtshals?

For most travellers on this route the ferry is the better way: it leaves from the port in Bergen and lands you in Hirtshals itself, carries as much luggage as you can wheel and the car, and turns the journey into part of the holiday. A flight only wins when the crossing is long and time is short. Haqqi Tours arranges flights too, and says honestly which is better for your dates.

Return ferry from Hirtshals to Bergen

We book the return crossing from Hirtshals to Bergen just as easily, normally on the same confirmation. Round-trip fares and open returns are cheaper on many operators, so booking both directions together saves money. Let us know the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much does the ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals cost?

The cost of the ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals depends on the operator, the type of vessel, the date, whether you travel as a foot passenger or with a car, and the seat or cabin you choose. A conventional ferry is cheaper than a high-speed one; a summer Saturday costs more than a weekday in May; a car adds a vehicle fare; a cabin on an overnight sailing adds more. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price: we look up the live fares for your exact date and send the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

The figure we send is the total: passengers, vehicle, seats or cabin and port fees. If a slower sailing an hour later is cheaper, we say so; on this route the conventional ferry is often the best value for a family.
