About the Sandtorv – Hufthamar båtkai crossing
Two day patterns and eleven weekly sailings: Monday to Friday on one, Sunday on the other. Saturday has nothing.
Three departures cover 08:08 to 19:09 across 1.2 nautical miles, at five, ten or eleven minutes depending on the sailing — the variation comes from calls made on the way rather than the distance.
Both quays are in Austevoll, the island municipality south of Bergen made up of some 667 islands with no fixed link to the mainland at all. Hufthamar is on Huftarøy, the largest of them. A weekday-and-Sunday pattern with an empty Saturday is the shape of a service built around school and work rather than shopping.
