description
There is a fuel station in the fishing harbour, when you enter to starbord. It accepts credit cards (which most harbours do not on the Faroes). The remark from Chris "The right pontoon as you enter does not have bollards" is probably outdated. Now, the works in the harbour are finished, and this pontoon has finger docks. Probably ok for small boats, but bigger boats should probably go alongside the wooden piers where indicated on the map.

description
Pretty little marina with a few berths graciously made available for visiting boats. Be careful: the long pontoon on the right as you enter does not have bollards. Also be cautious when disembarking onto the wooden pontoons when they are wet, as they are very slippery. Beautiful hike over the pass to Norðragøta, with a return via the old scenic route.

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 28 minutes ago (Wednesday 05 November 07:18 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.
The safe wind directions for this harbour has been decided by an algorithm, based on how elevated the land around the harbour is. It's mostly correct, but sometimes the underlying data about elevation levels is not good enough to make correct decisions. It's a great help to other if you can validate or adjust the safe wind directions. You can see the data used by the algorithm to decide the safe wind directions by clicking here.
