Small wooden floating dock for smaller boats. There is some through traffic through the strait. This affects both the floating dock in the southwest and the quay in the southeast.
Fantastic island with a lot of history and many activities, as well as a nice network of forest trails. You can borrow a canoe, buy both eggs (if the chickens have laid eggs) and firewood bundles in the north of the island, and there are several lean-tos and fire pans scattered around the island. There is also the possibility for camping, and many good hammock trees.
For children, the swimming area in the southwest is best suited, but there is also a small swimming area with a stone staircase by the dinghy dock on the northwest side of the island. Clear water and beautiful western Norwegian nature.

Good swinging anchorage. Unsure about the bottom type, but it provided very good holding at a 10-12 meter anchoring depth. Watch out for some underwater cables at the innermost and outermost edges of the area. Sheltered and pleasant for most wind directions. Nice island to explore with the dinghy.
