About
About Kjerringholmen ferjekai
Kjerringholmen is a quay on Sørøya in western Finnmark with 24 active sailings — 11 of them on one crossing and 1 on the other, connecting settlements on an island the size of a small county with almost no roads between them.
Where the boats go
- Klokkarøy — about 20 minutes, 11 sailings.
- Strømsnes / Akkarfjord — about 15 minutes, 1 sailing.
Operated by Snelandia, the Finnmark county transport authority.
⚠ One of these is a service and one is not
Eleven sailings to Klokkarøy is a working connection. One sailing to Akkarfjord is a single scheduled run that does not go every day, and missing it on a roadless island is not a small problem.
Check the day of the week, not just the time.
Sørøya
Norway's fourth largest island, with a population of around a thousand spread across small settlements that in many cases have no road connection to each other. Boats are not a supplement to the road network here — in large part they are the road network.
Hasvik at the southwestern end has the airport and the car ferry to the mainland.
The wider picture
Every building on this island effectively postdates the winter of 1944–45, when the German retreat burned Finnmark and the population was forcibly evacuated. Several hundred people on Sørøya hid in caves through that winter instead.
Season
Year round in principle. This is open Arctic water at nearly 71 degrees north; cancellations are routine and polar night runs from late November to late January.
