Very nice harbor with all facilities. Reserve a spot using the Boatpark app. It's very comforting to know that there is a spot reserved for you when you arrive late and are tired. A card to access the service building can be obtained from the Hafenmeister at the harbor office for a deposit of 20 EUR, which you will get back in cash when you return the card upon departure.

Nice place to anchor. This was the outermost anchorage mark on the chart. Depth of approximately 8m. A bit close to the green navigational buoy to Heiligenhafen, but it was not a problem. Great place to anchor. Had winds of 4-6 m/s from the southwest. Good holding, the anchor set immediately. In some places, there may be some seaweed.

The harbour is somewhat windy with westerly winds. Here, one moors stern-to and between poles, which is quite common both in Denmark and in Germany. Along the breakwater, there is space for 12m+ boats. There are no cross cleats here and one has to get up on the jetty to pass the rope through the plank. A poor combination with strong winds and solo sailing. There is a barbecue area here and it is otherwise nice and tidy.

Great place with nice hiking trails and attractions. Kiosk in the harbor and parking for motorhomes. A bit shallow along the permanent quays for those with a draft of 2 meters or more, especially considering that it is rough here with western winds and heavy seas outside the breakwater. Otherwise, a fine harbor. The trip up to the Hammershus medieval castle is really worth the trip.

Great place. Bustling bird life. There are concrete docks with steel rings for mooring. It can be beneficial to have protection on the mooring lines due to the concrete edges. There is a lot of wear when it is windy. There is some swell inside the harbor. The docks have and do not have tires. There is no dedicated swimming area, but you can swim from the rocks or the docks. Or from the boat.
The approach is from two sides which makes it easier in relation to the wind. But it is narrow at the entrance.
You pay with the aimo park app.

Great place. Exposed to wind from the south to the west, some swell in the harbor. Concrete piers clad with wood, and there are large upright half steel rings to moor in. They have also placed a piece of plank at each to lay the ropes over to avoid wear. Power stations on the quay. Water too. Diesel can be ordered by phone, see the notice at the harbor office. Payment via a website, you will receive a QR code with a link from the harbor office.

Large, great harbor. Harbor watch in a boat that meets you at the entrance to the harbor. In the high season, you will meet a harbor watch in a boat who shows the way in. The docks have been upgraded and are very nice. The harbor office is in the tourist office. There, you can also pay in the good, old-fashioned way. Many of the guest places have buoys. These are about 1 meter high and easy to grab from the deck. There are also some opportunities to dock in berths with outriggers or alongside the dock. If you call the harbor watch well in advance of your arrival, you will get information about available spaces, etc.

Oskarshamn - Ernemar

Quiet, nice harbour with not too many boats and spaces. Perfect for those of us who like a bit of peace and quiet. The harbour is manned part of the day. Nice floating docks where you can, in some cases, dock alongside. Otherwise, there is mooring with a buoy at the stern and the bow moored to the dock. Payment is made via Dockspot, or directly to the harbour master. It is not possible to book a spot in advance on Dockspot, only to pay. However, it is possible to reserve a spot in advance if you come alone, as I do. I called the harbour master number that I have included here. It can be tricky to moor with a stern buoy when it is windy and you are alone. There is water and electricity on the docks. To get diesel, you have to go to the center of Oskarshamn.
The outermost floating dock, which incidentally is reserved for advance bookings, can be a bit exposed to wind from westerly directions.

Great harbor. Book a berth with the Boatpark app. This applies to large parts of Germany. You borrow a spot from someone who is not using it for periods.
