NV Cruising Guide
Navigation
Borkum is easy to approach even in unfavorable wind and weather
conditions. Access to the harbor is via the deep fairway of the
Ranzelgat along the mouth of the Ems. South of the illuminated
three-legged beacon, you enter the "Fischerbalje", which is buoyed
on both sides. To the north of the fairway is a breakwater, which
is flooded at high tide and offers immediate protection in the
fairway.
After passing the red buoy "F10", turn to port into the marina. The
entrance is narrow, unlit and has a water depth of 0.9 m at
LAT.
Berths
The biggest problem with the marina is the shallow water depth
and the narrowness of the unlit approach. The floating jetties are
a little run-down, but there is electricity and water. The eastern
jetty is intended for boats over 10 m in length and is used for
mooring alongside. The berths on the right-hand side of the central
jetties are equipped with finger arms. The western jetty is used by
local boats.
Surroundings
There are three restaurants right on the harbor with good views. There is a washing machine in the restaurant at Port Henry
There is also a bunker station for diesel (at the larger Osthafen) or bread rolls from the harbour master, but otherwise there are no supply options directly at the harbour.
However, there is a bus and train connection to the town of Borkum, 6 km away, or you can also hire bicycles from the harbour master. You will find very good supply options in the otherwise very turbulent town.
