Harbour Entrance
Oona River Harbour is tidal which means that it has a shallow entrance accessible only at high tide.
-
The depth of the entrance is marked on an entrance dolphin. The depths mark the depth at the shallowest part of the route.
-
The route in, is indicated by a range on the end of the breakwater.
-
From the depth marker dolphin find your position with the range and follow it to the breaker, then come around the breakwater and find your moorage at the dock.
The above information is only for general guidance. Navigating the entrance to the harbour remains your sole responsibility.
