About the Flostad hurtigbåtkai – Sandvær hurtigbåtkai crossing
Thursday only, at 08:50. One sailing a week covering 8.4 nautical miles in 25 minutes, and no service on any other day.
A weekly boat is the thinnest scheduled service that still counts as public transport. Everything else this island group needs — deliveries, visits, emergencies — happens outside the timetable.
Sandvær is a small island community in the Helgeland archipelago off Herøy, Nordland, out among the skerries where the coast breaks up into hundreds of islets. Flostad is on Dønna. The Seven Sisters mountains stand on the mainland behind both, and the water between them is open enough that a single weekly crossing is sometimes all the weather allows.

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.

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.
Will these sailing times change soon?
The timetable above is the one in force now and runs to 28 January 2027. The next edition has already been published and starts 17 September 2026; it replaces this table on that date, so what you see here is always the current season rather than a merged list of all of them.
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.
