We visited in fairly benign conditions, light N/NW breeze.
Anchored in the middle of the pool with the only mooring to the south of us.
Whilst our (Rocna) anchor took a few moments to bite it did and on recovery it was full of silty sand.
We would visit again in similar conditions at this quiet time of the season.

The harbour has poor holding ground and is exposed to strong katabatic winds from Hornelen with southern wind directions. Several private buoys in the bay also mean there is no swinging room to anchor. I would not recommend this harbour.

We tried to anchor here. Lots of seaweed and poor holding. Therefore, we chose to move on.
