description
Has been on the south side (outside) of the beacon at Steinflua. Flew a drone after the anchor was dropped and the boat had turned a bit, and discovered that the power cable marked on the chart lies somewhat further east than drawn in. It was easy to see with the drone and probably also possible to see from the deck, and there are some rocks in the area that you must also anchor a bit away from.

description
Entry and maritime conditions: Kirkefjord is a fjord located within the village of Reine. You must pass under a bridge that is 18 meters high to get here.
Anchoring: Anchoring depth approximately 15 meters on a sandy bottom.
The area: It's nice to stay here and walk over to the Korseidvika beach, a 5 km one-way trip, and up approximately 200 meters in elevation. Well-marked trail not far from where the passenger boat docks.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.
The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 49 minutes ago (Wednesday 30 April 10:35 AM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

Kirkefjord is surrounded by high hills or mountains. When strong winds come from the mountainous side there is a risk of turbulent or katabatic winds (also called "fall winds"), which may be rather unpleasant. In such conditions, you should not rely on the wind protection score for the coming night. Click to edit.
