Ystad is a Baltic port situated approx 50nm E of Trelleborg.

LOA 170m, draught 6.7m.

Approx 3,000,000t of cargo, 3,600 vessels and 2,000,000 passengers handled annually.

Anchorage may be obtained in Spanska Redden, W of the leading line for the principal approach channel, approx 1.5nm SW of the outer breakwaters, in depths of 14.0-16.0m, sand, clay and stones with Ystad church (55°26'N 013°50'E) bearing 025° and Kasehuvud bearing 098°. Anchorage may also be obtained in the outer road, 0.8nm SW of the mole heads, in depths of 7.0-11.0m, sand, clay and stones with the rear leading light structure open W of the front light structure. Both of the anchorages have good holding ground but are entirely exposed to S winds which send in a considerable sea. A submarine pipeline laid in a SSW direction for 0.5nm from the coast, 1nm W of the inner harbour entrance, is marked at its outer end by a buoy (yellow and red spar).

The harbour is protected by 2 outer breakwaters, the entrance between them lying 0.5nm seaward of the harbour moles. The channel from this entrance to the inner harbour has a width of 110m and a depth of 7.2m. The moleheads are floodlit. The principal approach to Ystad is made from SW and is authorised for a draught of 6.7m. First make Ystads Redd Lightbuoy (55°23.6'N 013°47.5'E) (safe water). Then steer 036° on the alignment of a pair of leading lights, this line leads SE of a lightbuoy (red buoy; light group Fl(2) R 6s) moored 0.6nm SW of the head of the W breakwater. Pass W of a buoy (spar) marking a shoal on the E side of the leading line and then between the heads of the outer breakwaters. Caution: A submarine pipeline extends 0.5nm from the coast from a position 1.0nm W of the harbour entrance.

If vessels require boatmen, they can be ordered from the stevedore's foreman. General berthing information: Vastra Kajen (silo quay) is not available from 1800-2300hrs. Norra Kajen is recommended (close to city).

Compulsory for all category 1 vessels, category 2 vessels of LOA 80m or 15m beam and over and category 2 vessels of LOA 90m or 16m beam and over. Request for pilots should be made 5 hours in advance Pilot boards in position Ystads Redd (55°23.3'N 013°46.4'E).

The approx limit of the port is all waters inside the outer breakwaters, including the small boat harbour.

Ystad Yttre Vastra Light (red light, Fl R 3s 360°) is exhibited, at an elevation of 8.0m, from the S end of the outer breakwater which is also floodlit. Ystad Yttre Ostra Light (green light, Fl(2)G 6s 360°) is exhibited, at an elevation of 8.0m, on the head of the E outer breakwater. Two concrete caissons are laid close N of the breakwater 0.28nm E of the light.

The normal range is 0.5m and the maximum 1.2m, above or below MWL. Caution: Sea jump, an abnormal large variation (1.0m or more) in water level can occur. It is caused by changes in air pressure or wind usually associated with the passage of a cold weather front off the coast.

No traffic schemes exist, as such. Vessels arriving or departing must advise their intentions on VHF Ch 10. Inward and outbound vessels have to be aware of ferries running in and out of the port.

Tugs to be ordered a minimum of 5 hours in advance.

Prevailing winds: W'ly. S and SW gales cause a heavy sea in the entrance to the harbour. Ice: Usually open to navigation throughout the year, if necessary with the assistance of an icebreaker.
