Good safe harbor. Good protection behind the breakwater. It can be a bit rough southwest down through the valley, especially in winter. The municipal quay facilities have undergone some redesign in recent years. It has become more of a dedicated harbor for fishing boats. It is marked as reserved for fishing boats, but guests will likely find space. If the space is occupied, there will likely be fixed moorings in place. No water on the pier. But power boxes are available. Pay via the Powerpay website accessible through a QR code on the boxes. We did not find any signs for harbor fees payment but this is also done through the same website as for the power boxes. There is a large Coop store nearby. Waste Environmental Station just behind the Coop. And unsorted waste in containers just across the river.
Great hiking area up the Kvalsund valley. Salmon fishing in the river near the breakwater. If you come from the west under the Kvalsund/Kvaløya bridge, be aware of strong currents in the sea. Best to adapt with the tide. On a rising tide, the current flows from west to east. And the opposite on a falling tide.
