description
This is a good anchorage in easterly winds. There are several good anchoring spots around the bay. We chose the 13-meter depth in the south part of the bay. Comfortlessbreen has retreated significantly and no longer calves into the sea. The bay is therefore mostly ice-free. Nice hiking opportunities.
The place is called Engelskbukta (with a "k") because the Englishman Jonas Poole had a bit of bad luck here in 1611. That is likely also why it is called Comfortlessbreen.
