Runavik (FORVK)

The port handles general cargo, cruise and passengers.

North Atlantic Winter Seasonal Zone I, Winter Oct 16 to Apr 15, Summer Apr 16 to Oct 15.

Runavik is situated in the SE part of Kongshavn, in the S of Skalafjordur.

Draught 11.0m.

Safe anchorage with good holding can be found on both sides of Kongshavn but the E side is preferable as depths there decrease more gradually towards the shore; the best berth is in a depth in excess of 50m with Saltnes bearing about 210° and Sjogv Church bearing 270°, distant 0.57nm. Above Kongshavn there is good anchorage anywhere in the fjord. Prohibited anchorage: Two submarine cables are laid across the fjord in the vicinity of Saltnes, the landing positions of the S cable being marked by beacons on the shore; another submarine cable is laid NE across the fjord from Skali (62°09.5'N 006°46.5'W), its landing positions being marked by beacons on the shore.

There are no navigational lights. Depths within the basin decrease from 15.0m in the entrance to 2.0m in the SE corner; shallow water within the harbour is marked by red buoys.
