Many of the local buses run in correspondence with the schools.
Travelling around the region by bus requires planning, as many buses only go once a day.
By boat
The expressboat along the coast and the different ferries can take you across the fjords. The express boat connects Nord-Lenangen, Arnøya and Skjervøy. The car ferries take you across the fjords to the Lyngen peninsula, to the islands Uløya, Laukøya and Arnøya.
Find the express boat schedule and the ferry schedules at Svipper.
