About the Nedstrand hurtigbåtkai – Vormestrand hurtigbåtkai crossing
With just one scheduled crossing per week, Kolumbus provides a limited service on the 5 nautical mile route across the Nedstrandsfjorden. The ferry sails only on Fridays, with a single departure from Nedstrand at 12:35. The crossing time is 15 minutes.
Due to the infrequent timetable, planning is required for travel between the two ports. Pricing is determined by the Norwegian AutoPASS system, which bases fares on vehicle length. From Nedstrand, Kolumbus also runs services to Foldøy, Hebnes, Nesheim, and Vikedal.
