description
Beautiful anchorage in a moraine lagoon carved by the glacier.
Despite its reassuring appearance, Hamburgerbukta is considered a fair-weather anchorage. As soon as the wind picks up, strong katabatic winds descend from the glacier.
Approach: Due to the overflow of rocks to the south, and to a lesser extent to the north, the navigable part of the pass is relatively narrow.
Anchor in 12 to 16 meters of water, on silt offering moderate holding.
On land, you will find relics from the whaling era, as well as a few graves.
