Beautiful route. Dyrön is very nice place also, Dyrönvagen is a must torist route! :)
Almost all facility, but only diesel, no petrol refueling possibility.
The North Hamnen seems a little bit more friendly harbour but it would be hard to find free places.

It was a really beautifull route. But not easy to sail in the narrow channels. When we got E wind to against us, than we had to motoring. We were invited for a dinner at Kenneth house. The harbour has a pier for guest boats, but it is not in the harbour guides.

It was only motoring due to the Kyrkesund kanal and calm wind or wrong wind direction.
