About the Brønnøysund hurtigbåtkaiHestøya ferjekai crossing

Four day patterns for fourteen weekly sailings: Monday to Friday, Thursday-and-Saturday, Friday alone, and Saturday alone. Sunday has no departure, and neither does any evening — the last boat is at 16:45.

Five sailings cover 08:05 to 16:45 over four-tenths of a nautical mile in a flat five minutes — one of the shortest scheduled crossings in Nordland, and fourteen movements a week in all.

Four-tenths of a mile is short enough that the two quays are in sight of one another across the sound. What the four separate calendars are recording is not distance but availability: the boat runs when the households on Hestøya need it, and the sheet differs on a Thursday from a Friday from a Saturday. Nordland county funds it on the same terms as a bus route inland.

How much does a ticket cost?

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 5m and several sailings a day (first 08:05, last 16:45), 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.
