About the Finnvåg hurtigbåtkai – Barkestad hurtigbåtkai crossing
The crossing is listed at three minutes on two departures and five on the third. Over 0.9 nautical miles that difference comes from the approach rather than the vessel. The sailings go at 10:05, 13:15 and 18:06.
Three days, three calendars
The morning boat runs Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays; the midday one on Sundays; the evening one every day. Only the last is available whatever the date.
An odd departure minute
Six minutes past six is a rotation time rather than a shuttle time. In Vesterålen these small express boats fit several quays into a single run, and the clock reflects the run.
Current plan
Listed to 31 January 2027. Tuesday carries only the evening sailing, which makes it the thinnest day of the week here.
