description
Rather industrial looking harbour with a big fishing vessel and piers for cruse ships. The town has some tourist attractions and restaurants, and big shop, but does not look very heartwarming. But the suroundings are nice.
To enter the harbour is very easy, there is one floating pontoon which is not looked, where every available space can be used. Unfortunately not water and electricity. But the harbour master is very helpful, so we could fill our tank at the cruise ship terminal (40 tons of water / hour :-) ...), and he would also have helped out with electricity if we asked for it. Harbour fee is to be payed cash.
Attention: the floating pontoon has a nasty corner on the cool side, and the water gets shallow towards land behind the last rectangular pontoon.

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 2 hours and 29 minutes ago (Friday 01 August 01:18 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.
