description
Approach and maritime conditions: Rauane is situated at the southernmost outlet from Kragerø, between Portør and Jomfruland. It is an excellent natural harbour on the way up or down the southern coast. The approach is rough and poorly marked, so you need to be cautious. It is possible to enter from the east, but the nautical charts recommend a marked approach from the south. If you enter from the east, you must navigate between two shoals with a depth of 1 meter. If you take the southern route, there is a submerged rock in the middle of the channel on the way in. Use GPS. There is a cable running through the anchoring area, so you need to anchor well to the south in the inner harbour. There is only enough room for one to two boats here, but more if moored against the shore.
Anchoring: Anchoring at about 10 meters depth. It's also possible to moor using a stern anchor towards the land, but be careful as the waters are very rough.
The area: Rauane consists of many smooth, bare islets and is a piece of coastal paradise. The islands on the northern side have old buildings that are now cabins, and the islands to the south are undeveloped. This is a perfect place for children to run around and play.
