description

Approche : Assurez-vous d’avoir pris connaissance des conditions de glace, des courants et du mascaret propres à Bjørnøya.
Le mouillage est bien protégé des vents du sud et de l’ouest. Mouillez du côté sud de la petite baie, par 5 à 6 mètres de fond, sur un fond de roches et de galets. Kvalrossbukta est considéré comme le mouillage le moins rouleur de Bjørnøya.
Même par temps calme, le débarquement nécessite une grande prudence. La plage de galets présente une pente abrupte, et des déferlantes peuvent se former à marée haute, même si la mer semble calme à marée basse. À terre, subsistent quelques vestiges d’une station baleinière datant du début du XXe siècle. On y trouve également le départ de quelques randonnées.

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 27 minutes ago (Thursday 05 June 01:13 PM). 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.
