description
It's a rather big fishing harbour with a lot of unloading facilities in the outer harbour. The small fishing boats go into the inner harbour after unloading. There is a floating pontoon that can be used by transiting boats, or a free space on the finger docks. Talk to the harbour master to know what is free. His office is in a container near the crane in the outer harbour.
There is also a dock in the outer harbour (near the fuel station) where transiting boats can moor, which is fine in settled conditions and closer to the village.
There is a fee, which can be payed here or in Husavik.
It seems possible to anchor in the bay south and east of the harbour. We did anchor a bit north of the harbour bay in rather settled conditions (10-15kts northwind) and it was fine for fishing in the afternoon.
