Travel to Brändö

You can reach Brändö by ferry operated by Ålandstrafiken. Ferries serve from Osnäs in Kustavi|Gustavs (Finnish: Vuosnainen in Kustavi) to the village of Åva ("Norra Linjen", M/S Viggen) and from Hummelvik, Vårdö ("Norra Linjen", M/S Alfågeln), to Lappo and to Torsholma. Osnäs and Hummelvik are on islands connected to the Finland and Åland mainlands, respectively, by short road ferry passages.

There are buses from Mariehamn and Åbo and between Åva and Torsholma, connecting to some of the ferry departures. For Kustavi these services are sparse, especially off season. Off season there is a taxi connection from Kustavi to the ferry (€4) and between Åva and Torsholma (free), instead of the bus. The taxi has to be ordered in advance. The connections are described in the Ålandstrafiken timetables.

There are also connections from Houtskär (main village: Näsby) and Iniö (main village: Norrby) to Torsholma by the "Houtskärs ruttområde" and "Iniö tilläggsrutt" ferries. These are small, often calling at many minor islands and in many cases have to be booked in advance.

Keep the ferry receipts, as the ferry onwards or back will be cheaper after a night spent in the archipelago (as defined in Åland). Also, bike tickets are valid for all the season.

Get Around

To reach the separate islands there are smaller ferries, _linjevis.htm timetables from Åva-Jurmo vv. and Torsholma-Lappo-Asterholma vv. Note that some arrivals need to be booked in advance.
