How do you take the Djurgården ferry?
Where line 82 leaves from, where it lands and which tickets work.
Short answer
The Djurgården ferry is SL line 82, which runs from Slussen via Skeppsholmen to Djurgården and stops at Allmänna gränd, and SL fares apply on the ferry. According to Vasamuseet it departs from Slussen all year round. A second boat, M/S Emelie, runs between Nybroplan, Djurgården and Hammarby Sjöstad.
Why
- Ferry line 82 operates on the route Slussen, Skeppsholmen and Djurgården, stops at Allmänna Gränd 400 metres from Skansen, and SL fares apply on the ferry, according to Skansen.
- Line 82 departs from Slussen all year round, and from the Allmänna gränd stop it is about an 8-minute walk to the Vasa Museum, according to Vasamuseet.
- Line 82 (Djurgårdsfärjan) is run by Djurgårdens Färjetrafik as one of SL's four boat lines, according to Region Stockholm.
Details
Visit Stockholm says ferries leave from Nybroviken and Slussen for Djurgården and Hammarby Sjöstad, and that single tickets can be bought on the quay. Skansen refers to ressel.se for M/S Emelie, so confirm the tickets for that boat with the operator, and Vasamuseet points to sl.se for the timetables of lines 80 and 82. For the city's boat routes see water transport in Stockholm, and for ideas on the island see cheap things to do in Stockholm.
Tip
Check the timetable for lines 80 and 82 on sl.se before you go, and have a valid SL ticket ready before you board. Get off at Allmänna gränd for Skansen and the Vasa Museum.
What may differ
Which boat you take depends on where you start: line 82 leaves from Slussen, while M/S Emelie runs between Nybroplan, Djurgården and Hammarby Sjöstad and Skansen refers to ressel.se for it.
Common misconception
The Djurgården ferry is run by Waxholmsbolaget.
What actually happens
Region Stockholm says line 82 (Djurgårdsfärjan) is run by Djurgårdens Färjetrafik as one of SL's boat lines. Waxholmsbolaget runs the archipelago traffic that leaves from Strömkajen, where all SL tickets are valid between Strömkajen, Vaxholm and 42 piers.
