description
Tálknafjörður est un excellent mouillage, bien protégé par une langue de terre.
Approche : La passe est matérialisée par l’alignement de deux marques jaunes faiblement éclairées. En cas de mauvaise visibilité, elles sont difficiles à distinguer. Côté langue de sable, une bouée bâbord signale les hauts-fonds. Juste après celle-ci, on peut virer à bâbord pour accéder au mouillage.
Mouillage : On jette l’ancre par 16 à 18 mètres de fond, sur un substrat composé de sable, de vase, de roche et d’algues. Une fois l’ancre bien posée, le mouillage offre une bonne tenue. Attention toutefois : le fond remonte rapidement, et du côté du port, il y a deux lignes électriques sous-marines.
À moins d’une heure de marche le long de la route du fjord, on trouve des sources chaudes avec un bain public. L’endroit est gratuit et accessible 24h/24, 7j/7 — à ne pas manquer.

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 60 minutes ago (Friday 01 August 08:18 AM). 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.
