In northern Bohuslän lies Strömstad, a town that offers an incredible variety of environments and attractions for visitors of all ages. Along the city’s promenades, you’ll find historic buildings, shopping, cozy outdoor cafés, and green spaces.

In this charming summer town, the sea is always close by, with many beautiful bathing spots to choose from. Enjoy smooth cliffs, salty waters, crab fishing, paddling, seafood dinners, hiking, cycling, seal safaris, snorkeling, and much more. With the Koster boat, you can travel from central Strömstad to the Koster Islands—spend a day on Koster and combine fun activities in stunning surroundings. Here, you can experience world-class paddling in crystal-clear waters and get up close to Sweden’s only marine national park, Kosterhavet.

On Nord Långö, you’ll find the impressive stone and visitor garden Alaska, a site created in the late 1920s. Visiting for a fika and a walk on the island, now a nature reserve, is a popular summer pastime—don’t forget your swimwear. For families, the pirate-themed amusement park Daftöland is a favorite attraction.

At the Swedish-Norwegian border stands Dragonkullen, where on clear days you can see Gausa Mountain in Norway, 170 km away. Another viewpoint is at Krokstrand, Björnerödspiggen, which at 222 meters above sea level is the highest point in Bohuslän. Come and experience adventures beyond the ordinary!
