Guest harbor in Myken

Myken offers moorings and access to concrete pontoons to visiting boats, with ample depth for sailboats up to 50-60 ft. Land electricity is available (230V), but possibilities to bunker fuel are limited (has to be ordered in cans from the mainland, which is both expensive and depends on the passenger ferry service), so make sure to bring enough fuel for the return trip. The same counts for drinking water, although this is easier to get by in case of emergency. The local interest group, Myken Vel, is working on providing access to drinking water, at least for the summer months.
