During the actual evacuation there will be troop transports and destroyers all over the place. As far as harbors go, its a relatively deep on - but still very shallow water. There are some juicy targets there but is difficult at best to get in close. Depending on their orientation, if there are transports outside the harbor itself (only been there for the action once) that are stationary there is still an opportunity.
Position yourself such that the target is 4500-5000 meters away and fire 4 shots with magnetic settings, or at least 5 feet such that it would still travel under a DD and keep going. You're making a shot at or close to the max range of your electric torpedoes, if you want to risk using steam you could go further back (though it becomes harder to aim). After you fire the last torpedo (wouldn't recommend using the aft tubes as it takes too long to turn around at silent speed) change your course 180 and keep going silent until you're safely out of range. Hopefully by the time the torpedoes hit you'll be 5000-6000m away and can avoid detection all together.
There's also a lot of planes flying around, don't even think about going decks awash.
