Norge - Noreg - Norway
Hordaland county
Boat between Bergen and Stavanger

A nice way to go between Bergen and Stavanger (or the other way too of course) is by boat. You can move around while looking at the landscape, nature and enjoy the ride. The boat make various stops along the way, and you can have a good look at life along the west coast of Norway.

This route have been between the two cities for ages, but from January 1st 2014 it will be history. The two counties: Rogaland and Hordaland who are supporting this route could (or maybe the truth is they would) not agree about the financing of the part where the border between the two counties are - between Haugesund and Stord. So now they are just blaming each other about who would not continue the support, and nothing is done to maintain the nice boattrip. Getting between the two cities now will be by bus or plane only. We surely will lose a very nice and comfortable trip between the important part of western Norway.
