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.

Well-protected harbor with easy access. The anchor holds well on the first attempt at about 14m. Have stayed here in winds up to 12 m/s, no problems.
There is no good place to come ashore with a dinghy, but you can go to the Kylesku basin, 0.5 nm directly south. There you will find another anchorage, a ferry ramp, and a small quay, most likely private. Here you will also find the Kylesku hotel. Excellent place if you desire a spot for yourself. Well-protected and suitable for hiding away from strong westerly winds. On the islet on the south side, there is often a small group of seals.

Lett innseiling og greie flytebrygger. Veldig god beskyttelse for vinder fra sør, litt mer merkbart fra sørvest, men fremdeles helt greit. Vann finnes rett nedenfor gangveien. Strøm på bryggene. Bryggeanlegget er preget av at dette er ei fiskerihavn. Det skal være drivstoff her, men kaiområdet er stengt av fra landsiden så jeg ser ikke hvor det er.
Det finnes ikke noe service bygg. Det er toalett ifm. havnekontoret og dusj på herretoalettet. Ikke noe vaskeri, men en dame som tar imot vask. Det går et par dager å få det tilbake.
Ikke mulig å få tak i havnesjefen i helga. Flott turterreng med grusede stier, mest i stor skog. Lekeplassen er inne ved sentrum.

A new floating dock has been installed right below the service building. This one is also marked as guest spots. It is not as deep as the long floating dock. So for sailboats, one must be a bit careful.

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.

From the south: Navigate Sjona around Onøy and pass the Onøy ferry dock/fast boat quay through Røssøysundet towards Lurøya, or continue towards Sørvær between Eggeløysa and Lamøya and into Lurøya via the marked channel past Lyngøya.
From the north: Navigate Matskjærfjorden between Indre Kvarøy and Stigen/Lurøya past Matskjæret, then continue via the marked channel into Langvarsundet to Lurøy harbour.
Harbour depth approx. 5m. The entrance to the harbour is shallow, watch out for the chains to the floating dock. Solid concrete docks and plenty of space.
Great view towards Lovund and Træna. Several hiking trails including one up to Lurøyfjellet at 685m. See Ut.no

There is easy access to the anchoring spot. The Navionics chart indicates that there are two mooring buoys. These are not here now, so they must have been removed.

Easy approach, the tidal difference is around 4 meters so one must be cautious at low tide. Well protected, several mooring buoys, two on the north side and two on the south side of the bay, with a fee to the local owner. Payment is self-service and happens on the dock. If you moor your dinghy to the floating dock, there is a small port fee. They also sell game meat here. No facilities beyond this.
Beautiful nature and a quiet, peaceful harbor but with many visitors.

Great to stay with little wind. Today it is 3-5 m/s from south-southwest. Easy access from both south and north. 14-20 meters in the anchorage area.

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.

The payment system has been changed. Now BEASapp.com is used. The card machine in the harbor is operational, but it is not the one to be used, they say. Check the website for more info.

Good space for anchoring (sand, mud, and some seaweed in certain areas) in addition to the mooring buoys. Keep distance from the car ferry which has several arrivals per day. Lies nicely here in SW wind, some gusts down the mountainsides.
