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.

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