Food scene

Definitely the best ice cream I have had at the west coast of Sweden. Blueberry, salted chocolate and lemon sorbet is only a few of the yummy flavors Piper’s if offering.

Go to Hjalmars for a handful delicious oysters, a pizza or jug of a aperol spritz. The food itself would be enough, but then add on a beautiful view of the boat harbor and Hamburgö. It’s a winner.

Craving fresh seafood? Smögen is filled with shops to buy tonight’s dinner, Göstass is one of many. I mainly come here for the “räkmacka” which is a baguette filled with your choice of delicious Skagenröra (Skagen mix). Essentially the prawns are mixed with mayonnaise, gräddfil (a bit like soured cream) and some seasoning. Worth a try if you’ve never tasted it!

During the day this is an excellent choice for food, and after the last plate of food leaves the kitchen it gets transformed and becomes the main place to go to for a beer and dance.

Sightseeing

Take the ferry from Hamburgsund and visit Boviken for a swim either at the beach or walk around and meet a jumping tower with two levels. The surrounding is stunning as well.

A trip to Fjällbacka center is always a good idea. Buy a soft serve and walk towards Kungsklyftan where they back in the days filmed the Swedish movie Ronja Rövardotter (Ronja the Robber’s Daughter). Tour under the big rock and start walking up the wooden stairs for one of the best views west coast can offer.

If your visit is during later month of summer you can visit Hornbore Ting, a Viking game and Viking market taking place every summer. Hornbore Ting is taking place where an old castle was in use in the 1500s. Buy licorice roots, sauerkraut sausage or try to toss a axe in bullseye. You can even watch their live show. It’s different and it’s fun.
