FENJA/MENJA

M/F Fenja and M/F Menja are FANØLINJEN's two vehicle ferries that connect Esbjerg and Nordby on Fanø.

The two ferries are named after the giantesses Fenja and Menja from Norse mythology and were built at Morsø Shipyard. The ferries were finished in 1998 and have room for 396 passengers, 35 cars and 60 bicycles. The ferries therefore have a special deck with a "bicycle shed" that can accommodate 60 bicycles in racks.
