description
You can go around the entire Lille Bjørnen to moor on the cliffs on its north side, both on the east and west sides.
Anchor and go bow-in. Use wedges, but there are some bolts in the rock.
It is nice to anchor in the area north of Bjørnan.
The definition of lying as in a duck pond comes into its own here.
You can also nicely moor on the cliffs on Store Bjørnen. It is best on the northwest tip of the island.
If you have a SUP board or kayak, this is a beautiful area and the trip between Krabbøy and Finnøy is very stylish.
