Apart from the sanitary, there are no facilities in this harbour. It is about 45 mins walk to the town, and there are not many facilities there either. There might be a gas station somewhere, but since no cars are allowed apart from a few locals this will not be easy to find. For any repairs or stores, it has to be the Lauwersoog, the mainland harbour.
This is a huge fishing harbour, and you will find any type of facilities there plus a well-assorted marine store (the CIV – aimed at fishermen originally, but now very popular with the cruising community as well). Great to browse a marine store where you buy lines, ropes and hawsers by weight instead of length.
