Marjolein de Bruijne
The approach to this fishing port and the water depth does not look very inviting on the Navionic charts. In reality it is quite easy. The entrance channel is marked with large fixed buoys and when you follow this, it is really easy. Stay close to the green entrance light when entering the port, because the port side is silted.
Depths in the port are good. Overall depths are 2 to 2,5 meters at the berths, and the ones north of the Ice factory even have 4 meters.
In strong North-West winds it is not advisable to enter the port. The harbour master advised us that in winds of 40 knots and over, it is not safe to enter. Below that, or with other wind directions it should be fine.
I do not know if all the lights work, the harbour master told me they do, but I did not check for myself.
