description
Well-protected natural harbor. Was used as a wintering harbor in the age of sailing ships. Out here, it rarely froze over with ice!
Proceed cautiously when entering from the west. There are several 0.6m shallow areas on this side, but they are well marked on the chart. Sailboats can dock in the western inlet, while motorboats can enter the inner inlet with depths of 1-1.5 meters. Great swimming spot with a sandy bottom!
There are some bolts in the rock here, but you should also be prepared to use wedges.
Good anchorage.
