About
About Melfjordbotn hurtigbåtkai
Melfjordbotn sits at the head of a fjord and both its connections are long: Kilboghamn 10.7 nautical miles away at 50 to 60 minutes, Sørfjorden 8.7 miles at 49 to 50. Four or five sailings a week on each.
Departures run 09:10 to 19:00. An hour of sailing to reach the nearest quay on the coastal road is what the geography here costs.
The Melfjord cuts into the Rødøy mainland just north of the Arctic Circle, with the Svartisen icecap on the high ground to the east. Settlements at the head of fjords like this one were reached by boat long after the coast had roads, because the mountain walls leave nowhere to put one — and in several cases the road has still not arrived.
