Top harbor with good anchorage and protection from NW to SW. Nice sandy beach. Some wash from the main route, but more from the locals, who seem to have an internal competition to create the most wake for the boats at anchor.

A favorite anchorage spot. Provides especially good protection when it blows from NW to SW. If the harbor at Gullholmen is full, this place also quickly fills up.
Grass in shallow areas, 'nail-hold' in slightly deeper areas.
Short dinghy ride to shore with excellent roads and trails for hiking and training.
Some traffic waves should be expected during the daytime in peak season, especially from the ferries.

Great place and well-sheltered harbor. 5 SXK buoys. Beautiful beach with restaurant and trading booth. A lot of seaweed and hard to get a hold in the shallower areas, so stay a bit away from the shore. Some waves from the 'E6'.

Lovely swinging place on the eastern side of Härmanö. You fare best at the southernmost part of the bay as it offers some protection from waves. The fairway passes right by, but it still does not generate disturbing waves. Boat traffic is almost absent from around 6 PM, even during the holidays.
The anchoring bottom seems very good. The Cruising Club also has 4 blue buoys here.
A short dinghy trip (you don't need a motor, you can easily row or 'SUP') to the beach at Grindebacken. There is also a beach bar here with possibilities to purchase both food and drinks. A hike over idyllic Härmanö to Gullholmen is also recommended. About a 30-minute walk.
