⚓ Chapter 6 | #HighCoastSailor Mini-Guide
Welcome to Docksta Havet - Your trusted mooring since 2006
When you're exploring new waters, there's nothing quite like being welcomed by people who speak your language - and I mean that in the truest sailor-to-sailor sense. Here at Docksta Havet, we've been welcoming sailors like you since 2006, and we understand exactly what you need because we're sailors too.
Hello sailors! I'm Tommaso, your host at Docksta Havet Base Camp. Upon your arrival at our harbor, you'll likely be greeted by me, my wife Anna, or my brother Michele from the pier. We're here to welcome you and assist with docking your yacht.
Your Home Port in the High Coast
As the local Honorary Local Representatives (HLRs) for the Cruising Association (CA) of London, we're not just another marina - we're part of an international community of serious sailors. For nearly two decades, we've been helping crews from all over Europe discover the magic of the High Coast.
When you moor with us, you'll notice the difference right away:
