Västkust: living the insular way - Sweden



The archipelago of the swedish west coast starts at the outskirt of Göteborg. Ferries are running among the tiny and rocky islands, connecting small communities to the land. Some of the islands are occupied the all year round as others are a summer paradise. From never ending summer days to short and cold winter days, the west coast light sculpts the rocks and the waves.

tips and facts:

+ Where to stay:

Väderöarnas Värdhus: a guest house on an island, far away from the shore. The sea, the silence,... one of the best place ever! Book a boat from Fjällbacka.




+ Where to eat: 
Rökeriet, on the haven of Strömstad. Looking at the ferries leaving for Norway, enjoy local fresh sea food. Typically swedish! www.rokerietistromstad.se
+ What to do: Tanumshede: World Heritage (UNESCO) rock carving from the bronze age in astonishing landscapes. Beautifully designed ritual scene represented on rocks that used to be on the sea shore. www.vitlyckemuseum.se
