description
Magnificent place, with an island rich in history. On the beach, a colony of grey seals resides year-round, and, in season, impressive basking sharks pass through the anchorage. The island is uninhabited, but campers get dropped off to spend a few days. Beautiful hiking to do on site.
Anchorage: anchor in 10 to 12 meters on sand. Poorly protected and rolly, but the beauty of the place quickly makes you forget the discomfort.
Landing: in calm weather, it is possible to land either on the beach or at the small quay on the left, between the rocks.

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 54 minutes ago (Wednesday 30 April 09:18 AM). 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.
