In the spring of 2023, the first Stena Line ferry was supposed to dock at Østerby Harbor on Læsø with travelers from Gothenburg.
However, it didn't turn out that way. Since then, the project has quietly been put on hold.
In the fall of 2019, the island's municipal council collaborated with Stena Line on a route from Gothenburg to Læsø and further to Frederikshavn. Plans were well underway when the COVID-19 epidemic caused everything to come crashing down.
