Welcome aboard the “Kosterbåtarna”
We operate passenger and cargo ferries to the Koster islands all year round.
The passenger ferries depart from the “norra hamnen” in Strömstad at the main square (torget). Street adress Ångbåtskajen, Strömstad. Here you will also find a waiting room.
Nearby you also find the city tourist information, Strömstad infocenter. Check out their website HERE
Our time-tables in Swedish are available in the link below, or you can check out the Västtrafik travel-planner in English. Just enter the stops you wish to travel between for the next departure (e.g. Norra Hamnen, Strömstad to Koster (stops will appear or just choose KOSTERÖARNA to view next departure)
