The Djurgården Ferry, known in Swedish as Djurgårdsfärjan, is a commuter ferry between the central quay at Slussen and Djurgården, via Skeppsholmen. Stockholm locals and visitors use the route. The journey takes around 10 minutes, making the ferry a short way to travel between Slussen and the island by water.

The ferry is part of Stockholm’s public transport system, and all types of SL tickets are valid on board. That means visitors can use an SL ticket for the crossing. The route is described as a popular commuter service, so it is used for everyday travel as well as by people visiting the city.

Djurgårdens Färjetrafik AB says its aim is to provide service each day, all year, and to maintain a high level of service. The operator describes its work as managing and developing public transport on water. The information provided gives no departure timetable, so the around-10-minute journey time is the only specific timing stated. The ferry’s stated route and short crossing make it useful as a transport link to Djurgården, or as a brief trip by water from Slussen.
