Descriptions and reviews

TESO says:

description

Approach and maritime conditions: Beautiful natural harbor located at the outer edge of the sea, west of Byrknesøy. It is exposed to winds from the west; in such cases, bays further inside the straits may provide better shelter.

Approach either from the sea via Grønøysund or from the south via Hjeltøysund. Northern Grønøysund is not navigable due to shallow depth (approx. 1 meter).

On the approach, you are exposed to sea conditions from the open ocean. Access via Hjeltøysund/south requires close attention to the chart as there is so-called paddemark off Byrknes, and it's shallow in the northern part of Hjeltøysund, approx. 1.5-2 meters.
Anchoring: Anchor towards land or possibly on the swing. Some mooring bolts from the fishing fleet. Good depth near land, and good holding for the anchor.
The area: Beautiful rocky outcrops and a nice view of the sea. Here you are in the wilderness, and it is a 'wild' place. Sea eagles in the area and good fishing. Several nearby bays have iridescent green seabeds from shell sand.

Short distance to Byrknes where water, diesel, and provisions are available.

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