You can go by car or by bus no 10 to Østhusvik through Rennfast. Rennfast is a part of road E39 northbound, which goes through two underwater tunnels 5860 m long / 223 m below sea level and 4410 m long / 133 m below sea level, and over two bridges. Since 28 July 2006 the road is toll free.
Bus 10 leaves from stops no 17 and 19 downtown Stavanger once every hour, twice in the rush hours. From Østhusvik to Brimse there is one daily ferry around 3 pm and one in the opposite direction in the morning. At least in the school season, this is the school boat. The best thing to do is to call Frode at +47 91 81 37 74 or +47 51 72 37 54 to arrange a pickup.
By car: Go Madlaveien (road 509) westbound out of town, turn right onto E39 and drive through the two tunnels (there is an on land tunnel first). When you emerge on Rennesøy, turn right at the sign for Østhusvik.

Coming to Brimse is like going back in time. It is a small island in the Boknafjord, half an hour by express boat north-east of the norwegian "petroleum capital" Stavanger. Of the inhabitated islands...
