About
About Risøy kai
Risøy runs to Melvika and Musvær in thirty to fifty minutes, with four sailings between 16:15 and 18:35, operated by Svipper. These are small islands north-west of Tromsø, and the afternoon-only timetable means the boat works a single circuit late in the day rather than shuttling. Musvær has a few houses and a fishing history; the surrounding waters are used by the Tromsø boats that take visitors out to see whales in winter. These islands lie in open water west of Tromsø, and the boats are cancelled in winter storms more often than any other route in the county. Musvær and Melvika are neighbouring island landings, and the boat works between them on a single afternoon rotation.
