==Etimología==
El área toma su nombre de la granja Skei, del noruego antiguo ''Skeid'', lo que indica que el área se había utilizado para carreras de caballos u otros deportes.

==Historia==
People may have lived in the area for nearly ten thousand years. Namdalen and Helgeland experienced a rise in power and wealth during the Merovinger Age (550–800) and Viking Age (800–1000). Gerhard Schøning reclamó a Leka como la sede principal de los jefes de Namdalen y atribuyó su riqueza al control de Lekafjord, la pesca y el comercio de pescado seco. The area around Skei and the neighboring farm of Huseby has about fifty large burial mounds, which is an indication of wealth.
The largest mound, the Herlaug Mound, dates from 700.
Según Snorri Sturluson, los hermanos jefes Haurlag y Rollaug gobernaban el área en el norte de Namdalen, y se cree que Skei y la granja vecina de Huseby pueden haber estado en uno de sus cuatro asientos. During the 18th century the mound was associated with Herlaug, and was named in his honor. Desde entonces se ha datado en un período anterior. El Montículo Herlaugh fue objeto de excavaciones rudimentarias tres veces, en 1755, 1775 y 1780. Se recopilaron datos limitados y las excavaciones destruyeron en gran medida la integridad del montículo. Skeletons and a sword blade were found.

The first church in Leka was built at Skei during the early 13th century. It is not know how long it lasted, but was presumed to have stood for about two centruies, until the early 14th century. The replacement church was then built at Leknes.
Skei es una zona bastante plana en una isla bastante montañosa e históricamente se utilizó como lugar de reunión para carreras, deportes y entrenamiento militar.

Leka Local History Museum was established at Skei in 1962.
The passenger car ferry service started in 1964 by Rolf Østby using the ferry MS Leka (1964)|MS ''Leka''. El muelle fue modernizado en 1990. En 2000, las operaciones del ferry pasaron a Torghatten Trafikkselskap, quien introdujo el nuevo ferry MS Leka (MS Leka (2001)). At the same time the quay was rebuilt to support a larger ferry.
==Muelle==

La zona del muelle cuenta con el ferry Skei-Gutvik, que forma parte de County Road 771, así como con un servicio de ferry rápido a Rørvik y Namsos.
The quay area at Skei consists of a parking area, a car waiting area and a small technical building. There are three docks: the main dock for the vehicle ferry, a fast ferry dock and a dock for the reserve ferry to dock at if needed. El muelle para vehículos es bastante desafiante, ya que el ferry necesita hacer un giro de noventa grados justo cuando entra y sale del muelle.

There is a marina with a service building.
