There are 2 guest docks (floating docks) in the summer where boats can moor. These are reserved for the store's and restaurant's guests. If you intend to stay overnight, you can make arrangements with Snarkjøp Høllen, the store by the dock.

There is a large beach with shallow water, perfect for children.

Snarkjøp Høllen opened in April 2025 and offers a varied selection of local produce, groceries, fishing equipment, and beach toys. There is also a small selection of oils and other necessities for your boat. The store's summer opening hours are from 08:00-22:00. It also has an ice cream kiosk where you can buy delicious ice cream from Hennig Olsen, open from 11:00-21:00.

Above the store is Skagen Søgne. Opening hours throughout July are from Wednesday to Sunday starting at 14:00, closing times vary. Here you can enjoy a delicious buffet, small dishes, and something nice to drink. During the holiday, they also host different events such as live music, music bingo, etc. Check out their Facebook page: Skagen Høllen.

maritime qualities

description

The harbor area in Høllen consists of a municipal quay, a marina, and privately-owned piers.
Distinguishing between them is not necessarily straightforward. Here is an explanation:

When approaching the harbor, you will have Høllen marina to starboard (east). There are no guest berths within the marina itself, but guests are allowed on the outermost part of the main quay. The rest of this side of the quay is reserved for fishers and permanent residents on the islands.
If you keep to port, you will enter the western harbor area. Here, a section of the quay (green zone) is reserved for guests, with a maximum stay of two hours introduced in August 2022. Inside the guest berths, space is reserved for route boats, fire boats, and other utility vessels.
Next, there are a few meters reserved for refueling. From here and further inwards, it becomes cramped for larger boats.
Inside of this, there are a few meters of quay, and in the summer season, a floating dock designed for Joker store customers. You can stay overnight here (8 PM to 12 PM) for a fee agreed with the store. The innermost docks are private.

Høllen can be a nice stop for refueling and a restaurant visit. The restaurant is open during the summer, and during the holidays, concerts, karaoke, and similar events are organized. The Joker store on the quay is open until 8 PM, and there is a Bunnpris store a few hundred meters further north that is open until 9 PM. Consider taking Høllegada with beautiful small southern Norway houses if you are heading to Bunnpris.

Other: The waste sorting facility on the quay is for cottages/residents on the islands and is locked, except for glass/metal. There are trash bins by the red service building southeast towards the beach. There are also toilets here.

For overnight or longer stays, Åros holiday center a bit east of Høllen is probably a better choice.
