Update Nov 2018 – The harbormaster recommends and would prefer is contacted at least 72 hours prior to arrival to make arrangements. Johan – 082 657 0855
The entrance is dredged to 2.8m, but after strong weather, the port could be closed until dredged again(hours or days, they have a dredging barge ). Hence why it’s recommended to contact them before. There is also limited space available on usually private moorings and the owner of the mooring must be contacted. They can also tell you the possible options for moorings for prices etc…
The place is beautiful, nice secluded and very safe harbour with a small shop and restaurants, walking paths and a large grocery store a few kilometres away. There are surf spots at walking distance.
Beautiful stop on the coast!
