description
Nice surroundings, especially for the cat that can go ashore. Located by the stone pier. Stayed safely overnight in rain and wind, due to the deck so we didn't need to put out many fenders. There is an outdoor toilet with a light in the ceiling and bark, and a tap with water and soap.
Pärlan, my IF Marieholm 26 has a draft of 1.25m. Kept a line angled in from the red buoy towards the stone pier because of the 0.1m shoal, see chart. The depth is just enough at low tide. Shallow by the long pier. Only for small boats or use anchor. About 2.5m out in the bay.
Star for the wild plum trees I found behind the white house. Nice for walking on the island, but a bit overgrown and very windy.

Approach and maritime conditions: There is a fair amount of boat traffic since this is one of the routes out from Fredrikstad.
Anchoring: Outdoor Council's mooring buoy, about 6m deep. Watch out for a couple of shallows. The bay is called Kjøkkenbukta.
The Area: The house on Arisholmen is an old coach station from the sailing ship era. See: https://www.xn--krkery-jua9m.net/hjem/sted/sted-arisholmen/ Arisholmen is a popular destination for families with children. The best bathing bays are at the western end of the island.
