About the Nesna lokalbåtkai – Vikholmen kai crossing
The departure point is the lokalbåtkai, not the ferry berth. Nesna has both: the Fv17 vehicle ferry runs from one, and this passenger boat leaves the other at 21:45.
Eight knots for 1.1 nautical miles
Eight minutes to cover a mile is unhurried for a local boat, which usually means a call at another quay on the way out. Vikholmen is one of several small islands off Nesna.
Every day, including Sunday
Most routes this thin drop the weekend. This one does not: the same sailing runs seven days a week for the whole six months of the listing, which makes it the last outward boat of every single evening.
7 August 2026 to 31 January 2027
Nesna is a small Helgeland town with a college campus and a ferry quay. Quarter to ten at night is not a convenient hour, but it is a reliable one.
