Stokmarknes – the birthplace of Hurtigruten
The picturesque island community that inspired our pioneering founder over 130 years ago.
Straddling the islands of Hadseløya and Børøya, this traditional fishing community is where Hurtigruten’s founder, Captain Richard With, took on the challenge to safely and reliably connect communities along the rugged Norwegian coast – the second-longest coastline in the world.
We’re proud that our Coastal Express continues to carry you to Stokmarknes, and to cities, towns and villages all along Norway’s coast, to this day.
