Be aware of strong currents if you dock in the canal.
We docked our 32-footer, and before we knew it, the stern was drifting away.
Once we were moored, it was excellent to stay here. We were positioned north of the bridge. Well sheltered from SW/SE winds. Quiet and calm from the restaurants on the quay around 10 PM, so it was not a problem for our children who needed to sleep.

description
Entry and maritime conditions: Moss guest harbour is located in the canal on both sides of the canal bridge that connects Jeløya with Moss. The bridge is welded shut and has a free sailing height of 4.5 m according to nautical chart data.
Entry from the south is straightforward, but stay clear of the Bastø ferries that lie to the east of the canal opening. Just west before the entry, you will find Fiske marina and the city beach/Sjøbadet. South of the bridge, it is only possible to moor on the east side towards the Bastø ferry parking.
When the current and wind go in opposite directions, it can create choppy waters at the canal mouth. This can be further exacerbated by the ferry's thrusters when they leave the quay.
Entry from the north is completely trouble-free from Mossesundet. On this side of the bridge, you can moor on both sides in the canal, as well as on the floating docks just north of the customs house (Peppes Pizza).
Depths in the canal are 3.5-5 m. You cannot moor on the west side south of the bridge.
Mooring: Mooring in the canal is alongside wooden docks. Mooring on floating docks is in slips or alongside.
Anchoring is prohibited!
There can be relatively strong currents in the canal under unfavorable conditions, which you should be aware of when berthing.
The area: The guest harbour offers full-service guest harbour facilities. In Moss, you will find all city amenities, a butcher, bakery, and fish shop by the canal and walking distance to most other facilities, shopping centers, beaches, galleries, restaurants, cinema, etc.
There may be some party noise in the canal during peak season. Peppes Pizza and Fiskebasaren are located on the east side of the dock. Fiskebasaren has sing-alongs and a good atmosphere on Wednesdays during the season.
The canal is well trafficked by small boats on good weather days.
