Holm: ferjekai
Holm has served as a ferry landing in Nordland since the 20th century. On the western edge of Bindal municipality, it forms one end of the Fylkesvei 17 crossing to Vennesund, a sea link over Bindalsfjorden. The quay’s broad approach lanes, vehicle holding area and low service buildings underline its practical role in moving traffic along Norway’s coast. Beyond the terminal, a narrow shore runs between sheltered water, exposed rock and rounded, wooded hills, terrain typical of this part of Helgeland. Fylkesvei 17 is widely known as Kystriksveien, the long coastal road connecting communities through Nordland; at Holm, the road journey continues by ferry.

Holm sits along the Norwegian Sea coast in Nordland, Norway, where Bindal’s indented shore is shaped by fjords, inlets and islands. It belongs to southern Helgeland, a sparsely settled coastal district where the sea has long connected small communities. Bindal is particularly associated with the bindalsfæring, a traditional clinker-built wooden boat that reflects local boatbuilding and fishing traditions. Holm is best understood as part of this working coastal environment, with the wider Nordland shoreline and its island-strewn waters setting the rhythm of daily life.

Nordland’s terrain shifts from an island-studded Atlantic coast in the west to mountains and inland plateaus near Sweden in the east, creating a long county of fjords, waterways and widely spaced communities. Bodø, just north of the Arctic Circle, is its principal city and was a European Capital of Culture in 2024. Nearby Saltstraumen is famed for its powerful tidal current, while the Vestfjorden separates the mainland from the dramatic Lofoten archipelago. Farther south, Svartisen adds glacier country to a region also shaped by enduring Sámi cultural traditions.

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
