Keep towards the docks on the right side when you enter the shallow area to avoid the first 1.5 meters on the left side. Then aim towards the inner rock on the left side. As you approach the rock, curve to the right. Bow lookout, low speed! Difficult to see the shallows due to much alternation between grass and sand.

description

Challenging entrance for boats drawing one and a half meters or more. And when (if...) you manage to find the route in, a fantastic cove/bay reveals itself, well worth the effort. Inside the bay, there is ample swinging room with a depth of about 4-8 meters. There are a couple of piers and several rocks with bolts. Be aware of several shallows if you move towards the rocks in the southeast and northwest. A small handful of cabins, but at a decent distance from the piers and swinging area. Naturally, there is no swell or waves entering here. However, the terrain all around is low, so at the swinging area, you will notice winds from all directions, albeit dampened from offshore. If you moor towards the land, you will get protection from the direction you are mooring towards. The entrance has three challenging sections. If you succeed with the first one, you can easily handle the last two narrow spots by closely following a good nautical chart. For the first and difficult one, see the description in the accompanying image.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 44 minutes ago (Wednesday 30 April 11:28 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

The safe wind directions for this harbour has been decided by an algorithm, based on how elevated the land around the harbour is. It's mostly correct, but sometimes the underlying data about elevation levels is not good enough to make correct decisions. It's a great help to other if you can validate or adjust the safe wind directions. You can see the data used by the algorithm to decide the safe wind directions by clicking here.
