About
About Bolga ferjekai
Bolga's ferry to Meløysund takes 45 to 55 minutes over 7.7 nautical miles, with seven sailings a week outbound and eight back, across four day patterns from 05:35 to 20:40. Vassdalsvik adds one at 21:10.
A 05:35 first departure on an island route means the boat is there for people who work on the mainland — the timetable starts before the day does.
Bolga is a small island in Meløy with a distinctive peak, Bolgatinden, rising straight from the sea to over 400 metres, and a population of around a hundred. The Svartisen glacier lies on the mainland behind it, and this stretch of coast — where the Arctic Circle crosses — is the one the Kystriksveien coastal road threads through with a succession of ferry crossings.
