description
Great natural harbor at the far west of the sea. It is accessible from the north via an inner lead on the west side, or from the south directly from the sea. From the north, there are some bridges to pass under, the lowest being 10 meters. The inner lead also has some unmarked shallow areas.
The harbor is well-equipped with good mooring options, both for anchoring and for the floating dock. The quay is mainly for disembarking.
BOF/Kystled offers houses for rent on the west side, which provide a great view and also a nice shallow swimming bay.
Despite its location at the outermost part of the sea, Hissøy is a harbor where one can be safely moored. Southern winds may blow over the breakwater, but you will still be well sheltered here. The harbor is not exposed to waves or swell.

Approach and maritime conditions: Hissøyna is a beautiful outport on the outside of Sotra and a nice alternative to Løno, which is much better known. Uncharted waters on the approach, but most of the shoals are marked. Well protected from the wind. Outports on Hissøyna are owned and maintained by BOF. Read the description of the recreational area at https://www.vestkystparken.no/tur/vestkystparkelementer/022163.
The area: The coastal house on Hissøyna can be rented. See BOF.no's website or https://www.vestkystparken.no/tur/vestkystparkelementer/022163 for details. Many sheep on the island, and nice views of the sea from many places. You will also find wild garlic on the island!
