About Harnosand Port

Harnosand Port. In the middle of Sweden.

The harbor is located in the middle of Härnösand, at the mouth of the river Ångermanälven, with its own railway track and right next to the E4. The conditions in Harnosands harbor are the best imaginable, even for larger and deep-draft tonnage. The entrance is both short, wide, deep and safe. The distance from the mooring beacons in the coastal strip is only four nautical miles and the water depth is 40-80 meters right into the reef.

When it comes to winter shipping, Harnosand’s harbor is one of the best on the Norrland coast. The harbor is ice-free for a long time, thanks to the short and straight fairway and favorable currents from the river.
