Approach and maritime conditions: The approach is towards SW, right by the ferry dock. Be aware of propeller wash from the ferries if they are docked. Guest berths are at the ends of designated finger piers, and further inside the harbor by the clubhouse. The dock on the starboard side as soon as you enter the harbor is only for embarking and disembarking. The approach is easy, and there is good depth in the harbor.
Mooring: You can moor at the ends of the piers that are marked for guest berths. Additionally, there is a pier reserved for guests further inside the harbor, below the clubhouse.
The area: Nesna has grocery stores, a liquor store, etc. There are opportunities for hiking in the area. The guest harbor is centrally located. The campsite offers many facilities, including a water park.

Navigation and Maritime Conditions: The harbor is about 10 minutes from the city center. It is a large harbor for the association's members. A good alternative to the guest harbor in the city center. The approach is straightforward and with good depth.
Berthing: There is a floating dock with space for 4 boats of 35-40 feet on each side. The guest harbor is well marked, outcrop no. 2 port side. You moor alongside. No anchoring.
The Area: Sandnessjøen has most of the facilities and services for boats. There is a nice trail that starts in the guest harbor (Åsen hiking trail). Just follow the markings.

Entrance and maritime conditions: It is possible to use the guest pier at Herøy Brygge, but it is often occupied by 'day visitors'.
By asking nicely, you can get electricity, but there is no water on the pier.
Best suited outside of the season due to day visitors.
Docking: Good floating dock, with direct access to the pub/restaurant.
The area: Herøy is an idyllic place. The church and the local museum are worth a visit. Coop is located right by the pier. The liquor store, sports shop, etc., are across the bridge and a few hundred meters further.

Approach and maritime conditions: There are two guest docks on the shore side, and a dock along the breakwater that can also be used. Mooring is done alongside. The harbor is listed with a depth of two meters. But exercise caution during low tide if you have a deep draft. There is a large clubhouse with all facilities. Payment via VIPPS.
Mooring: There are a total of three floating docks available for guests.
The area: Hemnesberget has a long tradition of boat building, and each house owns at least one boat. The place was burned down during the war, which is reflected in its architecture. But the area around the marina is charming. There are nice hiking opportunities on Hemnesfjellet.

Approach and maritime conditions: There may be some swell due to traffic outside the breakwater / main line that passes outside. Very straightforward approach, and relatively good space in the harbor. It is deep enough at both docks (2.5m) at low tide. As elsewhere on Helgeland, east wind can be strong here.
Mooring: There are two docks that can be used. The outer dock has water and electricity on the pier. The inner dock requires a long extension cord up to the platform. Mooring is done alongside.
The area: The guest harbor is connected to Bolga Brygge which serves excellent food. There is a nice hike both to the top of the island and also to the west side where there is a tilting stone. There is a private boat engine museum on the island for special enthusiasts. The owner starts the engines upon request.
