Where is the Flåm cruise port?

Ships dock at the cruise quay in the village, about 200 m from the centre, run by Aurland Hamnevesen (Flam Port). When the quay is taken, ships anchor in sand at about 50 m depth roughly 600 m out and tender in; the tender pier takes up to two ships. The pier area has a terminal with restrooms, internet access, coach parking and guide services, but no currency exchange and no turnaround facilities.

Flam station, the fjord-boat dock, shops and hotels are a short walk along the waterfront. Bergen airport is 167 km away and Sogndal airport 80 km. Gudvangen, in the same port district, is a separate anchorage with a small tender quay.
