Descriptions and reviews

maritime qualities

description

A natural harbor with good anchoring conditions, but the place is somewhat weather-exposed, especially with northerly winds. The old cemetery on Risøya is incredibly beautiful and should be visited if you are in the vicinity. The old trading post Finnkroken located nearby on Reinøya is also worth a visit.

Naturally, there are no facilities other than reasonably good hold for the anchor.

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 46 minutes ago (Wednesday 30 April 06:28 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 directions for this harbour was added at 27. Mar 2024. Click here to edit.

Risøya and/or the surrounding seas is not well protected from strong winds and waves, and you should take caution in foul weather. Click to edit protection level.

Risøya is surrounded by high hills or mountains. When strong winds come from the mountainous side there is a risk of turbulent or katabatic winds (also called "fall winds"), which may be rather unpleasant. In such conditions, you should not rely on the wind protection score for the coming night. Click to edit.
