Aalborg is situated on both banks of the Limfjord with access to both the North Sea and Kattegat.

LOA 250m, beam 32.26m, draught 9.4m and 74,995DWT

Approx 3,000,000t of cargo handled annually.

Vessels wishing to anchor within the harbour area must request permission from the Harbour Authority on VHF Ch 16. Vessels granted permission to anchor must not obstruct clear passage either through the bridges or to quay installations. Anchoring is not recommended in an area close NE of Ostre Havn (57°02.9'N 009° 56.5'N), likely to be foul where three floating docks were previously berthed. Prohibited anchorage. Anchoring is prohibited in the vicinity of the bridges, and within 200m of the tunnel marked by No19 Lightbuoy.

Aalborg can be approached from two directions. Deep draught vessels enter from Kattegat through E entrance to Limfjorden, maximum draught 9.3m. Small vessels up to 3.8m can reach the port from the North Sea via artificial channels (at Thyboron and Logstor) and the Limfjord, a total distance of 78nm. Although this passage is marked with leading lights, the transit between Aalborg and Logstor does not have leading lights or lightbuoys. The main approach is from the Kattegat via Buoy "B7", through the Svitringen and Egense routes and across Hals Bar, a total distance of 18nm. Entrance for deep draught vessels is via the Aalborg Bugt Buoy "B7" through the channel, length 6.5nm; width 240m, to the Svitringen route; length 8nm, width 240m and then through the Egense route, length 3.7m; width 110m across Hals Bar. The 36nm fairway from Kattegat to Aalborg has a minimum width of 110m and a depth of 10.4m MSL in the artificial channel across Hals Bar and a depth of 10.1m MSL between the bar and Aalborg. The max draught for vessels crossing Hals Bar is 9.3m MSL.

BA 430, 429, 894, Danish 105, 106, 107. Admiralty Pilot NP18, NP286(2).

Line handlers are available throughout 24 hours.

Pilotage is compulsory through the railway bridge, Jembanebroen, for vessels LOA 80m and over. Vessels with a draught of 6.0m and over shall use a Pilot when navigating between Hals Barre Lt Ho and Aalborg Port. Pilot boards in the following positions: a) Hals 1: 56°51.50'N 10°46.50'E (near No 7 Lightbuoy). b) Hals 2: 56°51.90'N 10°35.30'E (1nm NW of Svitringen Rende S Light). c) Hals 3: 56°56.00'N 10°29.00'E (7nm NW of Svitringen Rende S Light). For Jembanebroen Rail Bridge and Limfjordsbroen Road Bridge, pilot boards in the following positions: a) Bridge passage from the E: 57°03.12'N 9°56.76'E (Aalborg E). b) Bridge passage from the W: 57°03.70'N 9°53.10'E (Aalborg W). The pilot boats are equipped with VHF Ch 16.

On the S side, the harbour limit extends about 200m from the S shore, from immediately SE of Rordal (57°03.8'N 009°53.9'E). On the N side, the harbour limit extends from 200m above the bridge, 100m from the N shore, to the SE end of a dredged approach channel at the SW end of Sundby Harg.

The fairway from Kattegat to Aalborg is buoyed and marked by a modern leading light system in order to permit day and night navigation under normal circumstances. Vessels with a draught up to 5.8m may approach the Hals Bar Light from an ENE direction. Smaller vessels with up to 3.8m draught can approach through the Limfjord from the North Sea, a distance of 78nm. From Thyboron to Logstor the passage through narrow sounds and channels is marked with leading lights and lightbuoys.

Overhead Obstructions: A high tension cable with a vertical clearance of 48m spans the fairway off the NEFO power station. Two bascule bridges span the W part of the harbour, each with a 30m wide opening: Limfjordesbroen road bridge (57°03.3'N 009°55.02'E) at the W end of Aalborg, has a central double bascule span: Navigable width: 30m, marked on S side by red lights, and on N side by green lights. Central span, vertical clearance when closed: 9.5m. Three fixed side spans on S side of the bridge, vertical clearance: 4.4m, four spans on N side, vertical clearance: 3.3m. Bridge opening times: Ships can request free passage between 0500-2100hrs (May to Sept), and 0600-1900hrs (Oct to Apr), except that the bridge is closed between the following times: ..... Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 0640-0710hrs 0740-0810hrs 1530-1630hrs Tuesday 0640-0840hrs 1530-1630hrs Friday 0640-0710hrs 0740-0810hrs 1430-1530hrs A board is placed on E and W sides of the S bascule pillar of the bridge to inform small craft of the time of next opening. Jernbanebroen rail bridge (0.35nm farther NW) is supported on seven piers, with a single bascule span between the third and fourth spans from the Aalborg side. Navigable width: 30m, marked on S side by red lights, and on the N side by green lights. The centre of the navigational opening is marked by white lights. South spans, bascule when lowered, vertical clearance: 4.4m North spans, vertical clearance: 3.3m. Bridge opening times: 0500-2100hrs, except within 15 minutes before a train is due, until it has passed over the bridge. Free passage through both bridges, out of normal hours, can be arranged before 2000hrs with the bridge watch, on VHF Ch 16.

Range 0.3m. Currents off Aalborg are irregular. After strong W'ly winds, tide may rise to 1.2m above MSL and prevailing strong E'ly winds may set the level to 0.7m below MSL.

Tugs are available.

Prevailing winds: W'ly. During the winter months ice may occur, especially in the fjord, but even in severe winters the port is always kept open by local icebreakers and powerful state icebreakers.
