description
It's a great landing spot when coming from the Faroes Islands. Getting in here is shorter than Seydisfjördur (which is the usual entry port). The town is nice, there is a small shop that gets you everything. Close to the pontoon is the local museum. There is a very nice walk to the cliffs on the east side of the town. The pontoon seems to be free, it was build to attract foreign sailors people told us. There is a electricity outlet on the pontoon, but I did not test if it works. I think there is also water, but I did not pay attention as I did not need. There is a bigger harbour with a small craft marina further down the fjord, but I think it's not interest for sailors, as it's off town and industrial, except maybe in very heavy weather when it seems to offer more protection than this open pontoon. But we did not go there.
