Open and easy access. Clay bottom provides 'infinite' good holding with the anchor on the clay bottom. Beautiful hiking areas on Kalvön, and Havstenssund is only a short dinghy ride away for shopping and a pleasant quay restaurant.

The bay inside Kalvön is a fantastic anchorage. It is one of the first places you come to after passing Kosterfjorden heading south. It can be quite rough out on Kosterfjorden, but as soon as you get inshore, the wind and sea calm down dramatically. In this harbor, you are well protected from all wind directions. The surrounding islands vary in height and some wind can get in, but all waves are kept out. The water is relatively shallow and it is easy to anchor here. The area is large, so there is room for many boats to swing around.
A trip onto Kalvön is highly recommended. The islands have scattered development and are very well maintained.
