About the Bolga hurtigbåtkaiØrnes hurtigbåtkai crossing

23:58 on Fridays, and 09:25 on Tuesdays. Two departures, two days, and one of them leaves as close to midnight as a timetable can get without crossing it. The crossing covers 11.6 nautical miles in 35 minutes.

What a 23:58 sailing is for

A Friday departure at that hour is the last movement of the week: people finishing late, connections arriving from elsewhere, freight that could not wait. It is not a convenience, it is a closing door.

Twelve miles at twenty knots

Bolga is an island in Meløy; Ørnes is the mainland hub. The express boat covers the distance in a little over half an hour, which is what makes a twice-weekly link workable at all.

Current plan

The listed departures run to 29 January 2027. Tuesday morning and Friday midnight are five days apart in one direction and two in the other — the calendar is lopsided.

Frequently asked questions

Does this ferry cross an international border?

No, it's entirely within Norway.

Which operator provides this service?

Nordland fylkeskommune operates this route.

How long is the ferry ride?

Around 35m, depending on sea conditions.

What's the sailing frequency per day?

2 sailings a day on this route.

What time is the last sailing?

How much does a ticket cost?

On most Norwegian road-network ferries, foot passengers and cyclists travel free; cars and larger vehicles are charged automatically via AutoPASS by vehicle length and crossing, so there is no single ticket price. Register an AutoPASS ferry account in advance for a discount, and check Nordland fylkeskommune for the current tariff.

Can I do this as a day trip?

A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 35m and several sailings a day (first 09:25, last 23:58), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.

Does the ferry run all year?

Sailings operate on selected days, and frequency can change between the summer and winter seasons. The timetable above shows the latest published departures — confirm with the operator for off-season dates.

Can I take a car on this ferry?

Nordland fylkeskommune does not list vehicle space on this service — plan to travel as a foot passenger. If you need to bring a car, check with the operator for alternative crossings.

Can I take a pet on this ferry?

Most ferry operators allow pets on this route, usually in a carrier, on deck or in designated pet areas or cabins, and registered assistance dogs travel free. Rules and any fees vary by operator and vessel — check with Nordland fylkeskommune, so declare your pet when booking.

What's the luggage allowance?

Foot passengers can normally bring their own luggage aboard at no extra charge, with racks or a luggage area near the entrance, and there is usually no airline-style weight limit. Oversized or excess items may carry a fee, so check with the operator if you are travelling with bulky baggage.

Where can I check live sailing times?
