Descriptions and reviews

description

The island of Helgøya is of breathtaking beauty.
Since 1999, it has been uninhabited. In winter, Kjerkevika takes on the appearance of a ghost village. However, although no one lives there year-round, some houses are used during the beautiful season, either as rentals or as secondary residences.
The island, along with its magnificent fine-sand banks, protects three anchorages: the first is sheltered from the south and east winds, the second from the north winds, and the last from the west winds.
The water is crystal clear, and it is easy to distinguish the areas of sand, seaweed, and rocks. The small port, with its unique pontoon, is private and reserved for clients.
Western anchorage (Kjerkevika): anchoring possible in 6 to 7 meters of water, on a bed of sand.
Beautiful hikes can be taken on the island.

Fair weather spot! We were anchored on the other side of the church than the point shown on this map.
Easy to go ashore, good hiking opportunities.

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 51 minutes ago (Sunday 15 June 05:28 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.
