Cozy place with great hiking opportunities. Good sanitary facilities, entrance via the garage complex by the Restaurant.
Be aware that if there are swells from the sea, it creates significant surge inside the harbor, causing large movements of the boat. Moor securely and use plenty of fenders.

Long ropes and considerate operation of the fast ferry made it perfectly fine to lie on the inside here.
Devold Center was disappointing, many empty premises and expensive prices from the factory outlet.
The service building was excellent, harbor fees are paid on Gomarina.

Fend well, passing boats take absolutely no heed so there will be a lot of movement.

Decent docks, well-marked danger area outside the outer floating dock.
Confusing harbor fee markings, 3 different ones, but GoMarin is the valid one.
Short distance to shop, free bicycle rental.
Cozy place with lots of history.
Dolm Church on the neighboring island can be worth a visit.

We couldn't find a guest dock here, only a private one which we docked at after calling the owner who conveniently had a sign with his phone number on it.
After the shopping trip, we went to Vågseidet, which is highly recommended!

Very turbulent due to ferry, and especially the express boat, ought to be easier to take more consideration.
The facility is great, but as mentioned, the express boats in particular make it so that I cannot recommend this harbor.
