Very easy to sail in and well-provided with bolts in the rock.
Good protection from all directions except wind from the north.
There are very nice hiking and swimming opportunities around this spot.
When we were here, the weather forecast was wind from the Southwest at 9 m/s with gusts up to 20 m/s. What we noticed was that the area's layout caused the wind from the Southwest to find a way around, so it also came a bit from the Southeast. This means you need to think a bit about where you drop the anchor.
There is a rock face where you can anchor longside with good depth.

When there's a strong north wind blowing, it's not a very good place to dock. Otherwise, it's a very nice location.

Easy approach and plenty of room for swing anchoring. Also possibilities for mooring on land. Depths of 12-8m with good holding.
In strong southerly winds, it can blow a bit through the strait here, but nothing that has made it uncomfortable for us to stay here.
Nice hiking trail ashore that takes you over to Havstenssund.

Easy access, solid bolts in the rock. Good depth all the way in. Nice place to the south, southwest, west.
