description
Nice natural harbour on a warm and calm day. The mountain provides protection from winds from the south, but it is relatively open to most other directions. It is a bit difficult to get around on the island due to rugged terrain, but there is a sandy beach a bit further south (perhaps best accessed by dinghy) and nice smooth rocks. Good depth to dock alongside on the north side of Långeskär, several fixed bolts, easy to maneuver. We considered anchoring, but there seems to be greater variation in depths than the chart suggests, so unsure about the holding quality of the anchor.
