Approx 76,000t of cargo handled annually.

Large vessels can anchor off the NW shore of the harbour between Kokkenes and Tingsaker, 0.5nm NNE, in depths from 20.0-30m. Care should be taken to avoid a 4.0m shoal lying 0.5nm NE of Kokkenes. Vessels of moderate size can anchor between the SW entrance point of the inner harbour and Gullholmen, 0.25nm S, in a depth of 40m. The inner harbour affords restricted anchorage to small vessels in depths up to 20.0m. The quarantine anchorage is in Tingsakerfjorden, the NE part of Lillesand haven.

The widest and best approach to Lillesand Havn is from SE, with entrance Sandsgapet (58°14.2'N 008°24.1'E). SE approach: Vessels should approach from the SE on the alignment of Saltholmen Light structure with Lillesand Church spire (58°15'N 008°23'E), bearing 327°, which leads close NE of Nordbaane Buoy. Then vessels should pass close to the NE side of Saltholmen, which is steep to, to avoid Langoybaane with a depth of 2.0m or less over it, 0.15nm N, and marked by an iron perch. Vessels should keep Langoy broad on the beam when passing through Sandgapet to avoid a 9.0m rocky patch, lying on the SW side of this channel, 0.3nm NW of Saltholmen and a rock, awash, marked on an iron perch close to Skogeroy, 0.25nm farther NW. Then vessels should pass between Gullholmskjaeret Light structure and Risholmen, 0.2nm E and vessels should then steer for the required berth. At night, vessels should approach in the white sector of Saltholmen Light, bearing between 310°-330°, which leads NE of Nordbaane and SW of Gasa (58°13'N 008°28'E) and Indre Malmgrunnen, to within 0.2nm of the light. Then vessels should alter course N on the alignment of the leading lights at Lillesand, bearing 318°, which leads through the fairway NE of Skogeroy and SW of Langoy and Risholmen, into the inner harbour.
