description
Easy entry from open sea. In case of swell, there may be some backwash from the mountain, which can create choppy seas. Depth is 7-9 meters at the entrance and in the bay, only getting shallower further inside the narrow sound. Be aware that with SW and W winds, there can be rough seas on the outer side. The entrance is exposed to such wind/seas.
The entrance is open with only one shallow area in the bay, which is marked with a stake.
Good holding ground for the anchor. Several jetties in the area are private. Moor with anchor and rope to land, or alongside the boathouses, or possibly swinging 'behind' the islet.
There are no bolts in the rock, but there are some trees where mooring is possible.
There is a beautiful lagoon with a sandy bottom in the neighboring bay which can be reached by dinghy or by mooring on this side of the bay.
Good and safe harbor with beautiful nature. Some older boathouses that 'belong here'. Here you can see sea eagles and owls. Good fishing on the outside. At the innermost part of the sound, there is a road leading into Turøy. You can, among other things, walk to Turøy Varden, which is a well-known sailing mark, or down to the harbor on the east side. It is also possible to follow the road inland towards the main road. Here you can take a bus to the store.
Great area for recreational diving.
