Local Ferry Network
This route is a short but integral part of the local public transport network around the municipality of Kragerø. It provides a direct link between the islands of Skåtøy and Bærø for residents and local traffic. The service functions as one leg of a multi-stop circuit that also connects both islands to the mainland port at Kragerø ferjekai.
Skåtøyroa ferjekai is a key interchange in this island network, with direct Farte services also running to Gumøy Tangane brygge, Stabbestad, and Tåtøy. Bærø Gulodden likewise has onward connections to Langøy brygge and Stabbestad.
