This is a fine natural harbor with a great swimming beach. Frequently used by boats on day trips.
The harbor provides good shelter from westerly winds, but some swell comes in. Open to winds from the east and north. A fine harbor for a short stop before heading south or over to Denmark.

Boats with shallow drafts can moor to the shore and use a stern anchor. There is a rocky bottom further out where it is natural to anchor, which makes it a bit difficult to get a good hold.

Easy approach. The guest harbor is to starboard. The first two piers are for guests. E is the first and D is the next. Other piers are marked r/g. Depths are well marked with signs on the floating docks. Mooring rings for side-on mooring on E-dock and booms on D-dock.

If you go further into the main harbor, there is a larger harbor with good depth throughout. Here you moor alongside stone piers with car tires. The pier edge is high, making it less suitable for smaller boats.

There are showers and toilets, but no lounge or kitchen. The shower is included in the fee. Reasonable prices. Harbor fees and electricity are paid online. Electrical outlets are activated via a website.

Beautiful sandy beaches north of the town and excellent cycling/walking paths both south and north of the town. There is also a small sandy beach within the harbor.

Pleasant guest harbour. Great beaches north of the city and 'all' amenities in the city. Easy approach. Some swell in strong southern winds.

Reasonable harbour fees for a city. Many berths and always room for one more.

Good protection from easterly winds. Some swell from ship traffic. Lots of vegetation on the bottom. Better anchorage a bit north of the river mouth.

Great hiking terrain. Nice sandy beach.

There are alongside moorings in the outer harbor, within the breakwater. During the high season, the harbor master is out in a RIB and shows the moorings. All boats must be moored or out of the harbor 15 minutes before the ferry docks or departs.

There are anchorage spots outside, but they are exposed to winds from the west.

Shop, diesel, gasoline, and restaurants in the harbor. The town is 3 km from the harbor. Bicycle rentals in the harbor. Fantastic beaches.

Easy entry. Not many spaces. A bit worn-out.

A very nice guest harbor. During the peak season, you will be greeted by harbor hosts who show you the space and help you with mooring. There are many spaces in the harbor, most in berths. The piers have a good length.

Reasonable prices. Electricity included. Great sanitary facilities with shower and sauna included in the price! Exceptionally good cleanliness. Restaurants on the pier. Waste sorting.

Many attractions in the city. Grocery stores 850m from the harbor (Lidl or Hemköp)

The guest harbor is south of the bridge. Easy approach. There is some current in the strait. The harbor is exposed to swell. East in the harbor, there are side-to docks against stone or car tires with a depth of 3m. You should expect to raft four to five boats alongside each other in each row.

West in the harbor, buoys have been laid out for anchoring with the bow towards land and the stern towards the buoys. Varying depths. On some days of the week, the mail boat arrives and docks on the east side. During those times, all boats must move from that dock. Passenger ferries dock north of the bridge.

Especially beautiful and unique landscape. Great swimming area from the dock with a ladder. Cafe and restaurant. Limited water supply. Some power outlets.

Well-protected swinging area for southern winds. Good holding in sandy bottom. Easy to dock with a dinghy in the small harbor, or by the rocky shoreline next to the sandy beach.

Easy approach. Many berths on either side of the first pier you come to. Excellent length of pontoons. Alongside berths along the pier following the breakwater straight ahead after entering, innermost between the first two piers, and along the pier following the breakwater immediately to starboard after entering. There can be some swell on the outer spots. The alongside berths immediately to starboard are completely sheltered from swell. Electricity is paid according to consumption using a Tally card. Payment by card at the machine.

Manned harbor office during day and afternoon. Restaurant on the pier. Nice sanitary facilities.

Very well sheltered anchorage.

Keep to the middle of the fjord and you can go all the way into the fjord where there is very good swinging room. Be careful to stay in the middle of the fjord where it is narrowest. The depth at the innermost part is 10 meters on a completely flat sandy bottom with good holding.

Great hiking opportunities on land.

Easy approach. Some swell in strong southern winds. Guest spots are marked with R/G signs. Piles for stern mooring. The width of the berths is shown on the walkways.

There is a very good boat equipment store by the harbor and a slip with a crane and workshop.

Pleasant town center and a short distance to Helsingborg city center.

Easy sailing. There are many guest berths in the second basin to starboard. Mostly side berths, but also some berths with poles. The harbor is well protected from most wind directions. There is no swell in the harbor. There is high activity from the many fishing boats that are based here.

Right by the harbor, there is a good equipment store for boats and fishermen.

Several good fishmongers on the pier. Short walking distance to the town.

There are three harbors in Dragør. Furthest south is a marina with limited depth, suitable for local pleasure boats. R/G sign. The middle harbor is for service and fueling. A few guest spots. The northern harbor has good depth and guest spots on the port side, right by the harbor office. Mooring bows-to or stern-to the pier with mooring lines. Also many spots to the starboard when you enter the harbor. Here, there are piles and slightly varying depths. The entrance to these two harbors is well marked with red and green buoys. Reasonable prices. Electricity is paid based on consumption.

Some airplane noise from Kastrup, depending on which runway is in use.

The old town is right by the harbor and is particularly charming. Alleys and narrow streets through old buildings. A gem.

Well-marked entrance. The harbour was upgraded a few years ago. Excellent floating piers with long, good outriggers. There are also several side-by-side berths closest to the quay. Wooden front against concrete. On the starboard side, there are buoys where you moor bow towards the pier and stern towards the buoy. During the high season, the harbour master is active and shows both the place and helps with mooring.

Many restaurants by the pier. Great cold bathhouse with sauna. Swimming pier. Very nice sandy beach south of the harbour. Free bicycle rental to get into town for shopping. Nice walking and cycling terrain with paths and small roads.

It is one kilometer to the town and the ICA store. The town has few shops. Greater selection in Falsterbo.

A very good natural harbour with several places to moor, and ample room for maneuvering. Easy approach. If you are coming in from the southwest, you can follow the alignment marks. It is possible to find shelter from most winds. Some swell in the southern part of the harbour in strong southerly winds. Good holding ground for anchoring.
