description

This islet is a little paradise in this cove near Randøyene. You will most likely arrive from the south, but there are also possibilities to come from both the west and north with a motorboat. (Nåløye and Skippergada)
Be aware of some debris near the small islets straight out from Buholmen.
Deep water all the way to the point north of the islet. Several bolts in the rock, but also have your own wedges ready. Bottom with eelgrass. Great swimming spot, and absolutely fantastic for small children on the shallow eastern side of the islet. Sailboats also lie well next to the islet, but many choose to anchor right by it.
Short distance to Tømmerstø with the dinghy. Here you will find fuel, water, a self-service store, and a pizza restaurant.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 46 minutes ago (Wednesday 11 December 09:27 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

The safe wind directions for this harbour has been decided by an algorithm, based on how elevated the land around the harbour is. It's mostly correct, but sometimes the underlying data about elevation levels is not good enough to make correct decisions. It's a great help to other if you can validate or adjust the safe wind directions. You can see the data used by the algorithm to decide the safe wind directions by clicking here.
