description

Squirrel Cove has a fairly narrow entrance that shoals a bit on both sides. Once inside, There is a fair bit of aquiculture in the outer bay. The whole bay is almost totally protected from the winds: it can be 35kn outside and barely a ripple inside.

The holding is excellent. Mud in water 3-4 metres deep. BUT there is a fair amount of old logging debris on the bottom. We have pulled up an old iron ring that was round the anchor, and another time the anchor pulled up a waterlogged log that was a bit difficult to release.

There is a fine trail from here to Von Donop.

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 -416 minutes ago (Wednesday 26 August 05:16 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.
