The Ferry Baldur

The way to Flatey Island and the Westfjords Ferry Baldur daily crosses Breidafjörður Bay between Stykkishólmur on the Snæfellsnes peninsula and Brjánslækur in the Westfjords of Iceland. A ferry trip shortens the route between the south and mid-west of the country and the Westfjords region. It also gives you the opportunity to experience a floating restaurant.

During the summer months there are two departures daily; see summer schedule. Over the summer many visitors choose to visit the beautiful charming island of Flatey, renowned for its birdlife. It's popular to take the morning ferry from Stykkishólmur and return in the evening or continue on to Brjánslækur.

For those traveling by car it is possible to send the car across the bay, while stopping in Flatey (without extra charge). Note that limited stops are in Flatey Island during the winter.

Please order space for cars on the ferry in advance.
