Kostersundet is a pleasant but also well-trafficked area. You are well sheltered from strong winds, even though they are noticeable, the boats remain quite steady since no sea gets through the strait.
In addition to the regular spots at the floating docks, there is a double spot at the crane quay as shown in the picture. This place is reserved for boats between 15-20 meters. There is a fair amount of ferry traffic here, but personally, we think it's nice not to have boats in front and behind, so it suits us well.
A dinghy or the cable ferry is the way to get over to South Koster, where you will find a fantastic restaurant, Kläpphagen, among other things. Be aware that the cable ferry requires a

WC and showers are available right by the guest pier. The harbour office is located a few hundred meters further away where the route boat docks. Payment information is posted on the pier itself, where you moor, you pay via mobile. To get to the store, take the cable ferry over to Sydkoster and walk about a kilometer to the ICA store, or turn right and rent a bike. On the way to ICA, you can go up to a lookout point that is equipped with wooden steps and resting benches. You will also pass the church, take note of the crown on the spire, the story about it is on the information board by the church.

There are two guest harbors on Nord-Koster: One in Kostersundet and one at Vettnett in the northeast.
The guest harbor in Kostersundet (this one) is the largest. There is a long floating dock in the strait. The southwest wind blows strong through Kostersundet, but the sea remains calm and it is safe to dock. Most of the buildings, as well as restaurants and other activities, are located here. A beautiful sandy beach is located in Basteviken, 750 meters across the island. There is a small cable ferry to Syd-Koster.
Nord-Koster is a bit smaller than Syd-Koster and large parts of the island are a nature reserve. The built-up area is therefore significantly smaller and it is possible to get around on foot. There is little traffic and it is quieter than Syd-Koster, but very charming. There are two restaurants and a couple of cafes on the island. A large kiosk has a limited selection of groceries.
