description

In this reasonably deep bay there are 5 mooring buoys. The area was important during the World Wars for the British fleet. There is a museum about it, and there are many remnants on the shore. At the end of the quay there is a corner where the dinghy can lie and where you can get ashore via a ladder. In the museum (which is free) there is also a little cafe.

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 23 minutes ago (Tuesday 04 August 05:20 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.
