description
Approach and maritime conditions: There are alongside berths on the south, southeast side of Fruertholmen. Also on the north side of the channel when you sail into Burøykilen. Nautical charts do not have all the details, but the approach past Kaninholmen is also fine even if you draw a couple of meters. There are two shoals on the left on the way in. One just before the reefs on the left side, and a spit protruding from the middle reef. Keep slightly to the right of center on the way in to avoid them. Beware when entering, as Kaninholmen has an underwater point extending into the bay on your right when you come in. It is generally shallow west of Kaninholmen. Once inside, the depth is 3-5 meters. It is possible to dock alongside in one or two places depending on depth and boat formation. Alternatively, anchor and tie up ashore. Watch out for the shoal extending southward by the Skjærgårdspark sign, but if you aim for the best and deepest alongside spots you will avoid this. It is possible to lie at anchor. Watch out for water pipes marked on the chart.
