Description

Small boat harbour between Varberg and Falkenberg.

NV Cruising Guide

Navigation

The harbour, which is only lit intermittently, should not be approached by those unfamiliar with the area, as the approach and the harbour are very prone to silting up and water depths of less than 1 m can occur.

Berths

Guests will find only very limited berthing facilities at the southern quay with a target depth of 1.4m. Otherwise the harbour is occupied by boats of the locals.

Surroundings

There are no utilities at the port other than basic sanitary facilities.

NV Land Guide

Ten mainly red-painted wooden buildings, most of them fishermen's sheds, stand at the lonely harbour of Galtabäck. Even the moorings in scenic surroundings serve almost exclusively the barges of recreational fishermen. There is hardly any space for yachtsmen.

Shallow meadows, shallow water and boulders dominate the landscape in the bird sanctuary near the harbour.

From a glazed observation tower right by the moorings, you can take a look at the birdlife with binoculars. You should be prepared that there are no utilities here.
