About the Øksfjord hurtigbåtkai – Loppa kai Mevær crossing
One departure at 16:30, on Mondays alone. The boat covers 19.2 nautical miles in 60 minutes out to Loppa island in western Finnmark. Six days of the week there is nothing.
An hour at twenty knots
The pace is ordinary for an express craft; the distance is not. Nineteen miles of open Arctic water on a weekly service means the boat is a lifeline rather than a convenience.
Loppa is smaller than the municipality it names
The island lends its name to a whole municipality on the Finnmark coast, but the settlement the boat serves is a fraction of it. A weekly sailing is proportionate to the population rather than to the map.
Current plan
The sailing is listed from 1 June to 28 December 2026. Seven months, one departure a week — roughly thirty opportunities in the whole listed period.
