NV Cruising Guide

Navigation

Borkum is easy to approach even in unfavorable wind and weather conditions. Access to the harbor is via the deep fairway of the Ranzelgat along the Ems estuary. South of the illuminated three-legged beacon, you enter the "Fischerbalje", which is buoyed on both sides. To the north of the fairway, there is a breakwater that is flooded at high tide and offers immediate protection in the fairway. When approaching in the dark, special attention must be paid to the unlit buoys in the "Fischerbalje". Outside the buoy line, the water quickly becomes very shallow. The harbor basin is spacious and has a depth of approx. 3.4-3.6 m at low tide.

Berths

Guest berths are located on the north side of the old marine pontoon 1, which is located on the pier. Pontoon 1 is the southern pontoon.

Container office harbour master at the entrance to floating bridge 1. 

Up to three boats may moor next to each other.

Guest berths should be reported to the Burkana harbour café (clubhouse) or call the  telephone numbers given.

Surroundings

There are three restaurants right on the harbor with good views. There is a washing machine in the restaurant at Port Henry

There is also a bunker station for diesel (at the larger Osthafen) or bread rolls from the harbour master, but otherwise there are no supply options directly at the harbour.

However, there is a bus and train connection to the town of Borkum, 6 km away, or you can also hire bicycles from the harbour master. In the usually very bustling town you will find very good supply options.

There is a 16t crane at the harbor.

Dirk, GEMATST!
Der Hafenmeister hat keine Telefonnummer hinterlegt. Die im Symbol angegebene Nummer gehört zum Burkana Cafe, sehr nett und lecker, auch hilfsbereit bei Auskünften. Der Hafen ist durch Hochsee-Windparkwartung Bereichsleiter stark frequentiert. Guter Liegeplatz auf der Südseite von Ponton 1 (Gastlieger).

Safe deep harbour on all tides. Many yachts rafted up so you can be sure of getting a place. Good price. Smaller boats will want to tuck into the NW corner of Ponton 1 to avoid the occasional wash of service vessels. (Extra star because we like the down-to-earth feel of the harbour. )
