About the Sommerset hurtigbåtkai – Brottøy hurtigbåtkai crossing
Two departures, at 06:45 and 15:10, Monday to Friday. Ten sailings a week over 2.2 nautical miles, twenty minutes each way.
One boat at the start of the day and one in the middle of the afternoon is a commuter pairing — out early, back before the evening. The weekend has nothing.
Sommerset is on the Sørfolda in Nordland, where the E6 once relied on a ferry before the road was rerouted through tunnels. What remains is a local fast-boat network serving the fjord settlements the new road left behind, and this pair of times is the working half of it. Twenty minutes for two nautical miles is slow for a fast boat, which means the vessel is calling elsewhere between the two quays rather than crossing straight over.

Nordland fylkeskommune does not list vehicle space on this service — plan to travel as a foot passenger. If you need to bring a car, check with the operator for alternative crossings.
Can I take a pet on this ferry?
Most ferry operators allow pets on this route, usually in a carrier, on deck or in designated pet areas or cabins, and registered assistance dogs travel free. Rules and any fees vary by operator and vessel — check with Nordland fylkeskommune, so declare your pet when booking.
What's the luggage allowance?
Foot passengers can normally bring their own luggage aboard at no extra charge, with racks or a luggage area near the entrance, and there is usually no airline-style weight limit. Oversized or excess items may carry a fee, so check with the operator if you are travelling with bulky baggage.
