Cruise by private boat to Smögen — Sweden's most photographed fishing village — and join a curated food walk along the legendary 600-metre Smögenbryggan boardwalk, sampling fresh prawns, gravlax, and west-coast oysters.
What to expect
Your skipper departs Lysekil marina and navigates through a classic Bohuslän skerry passage — a 45-minute journey that is itself a highlight. In Smögen, a local food guide walks you along the ochre, red, and white boat-house boardwalk, stopping at quayside smokehouses and fish stalls that have operated for generations. The showpiece is a seated tasting of freshly boiled Smögen prawns with bread and butter — a Swedish ritual best enjoyed with a measure of aquavit. Return by boat in time for all-aboard.
Good to know
Book the private charter at least one week in advance through Lysekil harbour authority or a local skipper. Journey time to Smögen is approximately 45 minutes each way; a 4-hour port call is the minimum needed. Confirm all-aboard time and build in a 30-minute buffer.
