Jondal Harbour cooperates with the grocery store (Spar) and the Community of Jondal. In addition to the 15 boat spaces we have in the installations of JondalHarbour we also have boat spaces in front of the grocery store (Spar) and by the concrete dock located in the middle of the harbour. Dock taxes are NOK 100, - per boat per day and nearby the new guest dock you can use electricity for NOK 25, - per night. Water is free. You pay by using the payment box which is located by the red storage building close to the Guest dock.

 

There are petrol and diesel pumps at the grocery store “Spar”, and they also manage toilet facilities (entrance on the same side as the ferry dock) and shower and washing room installations (entrance on the north side of the store). To use the installations you need to buy a code in the store. The store is open from Monday to Friday from 09.00 - 20.00 and Saturday from 09.00 - 18.00.
