Fantastic inhabited island far out in the archipelago. Often windy. Optimal wind SW. Can also work with E and then offshore winds but inside the bay with flat water as a result. Also works from SSW to WNW. In western winds, Lungskär can be in the way for the wind in some places, but with flat water as a result. Generally very open and not gusty.
