Stavanger Ferries Overview
Please note; Unfortunately the DFDS ferry service between Bergen/Haugesund/Stavanger (all in Norway) and Newcastle (England, UK) ceased service in September 2008, therefore ferries to and from Stavanger are currently not available through AFerry.com, we hope to have some available soon.
About Stavanger
Found on the southwest coast of Norway, Stavanger is a major fishing centre and is known as the oil capital of Norway. Stavanger is also the third largest city in Norway, and offers an exciting mix of modern cosmopolitanism and medieval charm. The port is found near the centre of the city, handily close to many of the shops and restaurants.
Stavanger is known as Norway's largest `small town' as everyone in Stavanger knows someone who knows someone else, despite this Stavanger is far more cosmopolitan and international than any comparable city in Norway. Visitors especially seem to fall in love with `Old Stavanger', which is a very beautiful and vibrant part of the town, consisting of small, wooden houses and cobble-stone roads.
Stavanger Terminal Facilities
The Stavanger cruise ship port is conveniently located in the centre of Stavanger, with bars and restaurants within walking distance. The terminals provide facilities for disabled passengers, and assistance with boarding is available upon request when booking, along with car parking facilities outside the terminal.
