About the Helgøya Ny-Hellesund – Monsøya Ny-Hellesund crossing
Two-tenths of a nautical mile, three minutes, ten sailings a day. Both landings are in Ny-Hellesund, an island group on the Agder coast, and the boat crosses a channel narrow enough to see across.
Six daily boats and four that are not
Six departures run every day between 09:22 and 19:47. Two more run Monday to Friday at 10:17 and 15:47, and two at weekends at 09:47 and 16:17 — the weekday and weekend extras sitting about half an hour apart from each other.
A crossing inside a place
When both quays share a name, the route is not connecting two destinations; it is stitching one together. Ny-Hellesund is a scatter of small islands, and the boat is how you move between the parts of it.
Current plan
The listed departures run to 18 December 2026. On a three-minute crossing with ten sailings the practical approach is to check the last boat and otherwise turn up.

What's the luggage allowance?
