The harbor and camping area are managed by Civitan (charitable organization) on behalf of Tønsberg Municipality during the summer season. Prices 2024: tent 100 NOK, guest pass for boat 100 NOK per night. Family-friendly and clear area, a paradise for small children! Good camping opportunities, water, shower (cold), and waste station. Not a place for parties and loud music late at night. In the summer season, the harbor to the north is limited to a maximum boat size of 28 feet. There is a swimming area in the harbor and many children swim around the boats + anchors crisscrossing. It will be challenging to maneuver in the harbor with 28+ feet, even outside the season, if you're not alone. In the northern part of the harbor, you are well protected from winds from most directions. The dock on the west side is somewhat exposed to waves from passing boats as there is a lot of traffic on this side. Here, there is usually no limitation on the number of feet, plenty of room for navigation. The harbor office, which is staffed during the summer season, is marked on the map.

A fantastic place! Be aware of shallows between Lyngholmen and Tisler - they can only be navigated with a rowboat. On the southern side, about 20 meters from shore, there is a shallow marked with a red/orange buoy. The anchorage conditions are good, and there are bolts in several places.
