description
The area between Tjørnholmen and the two surrounding islets is a spectacular anchorage, but it is best suited for fair weather. There can be a lot of weather and swell in Kvåsefjorden. It is surprisingly calm between the islets, and there are good depths in several places. It might be possible to moor alongside in some places with boats that have a deeper draft, but it is best suited for smaller boats. Approaching from the south or east is preferable, and it is narrow towards the west.
