Here we want to take the opportunity to tell you about all the hidden gems and fun adventures that you can look forward to when visiting Vrångö. Kayak, go exploring in the nature reserve, swim in the salty sea, try the hot tub on the sauna raft, and taste Vrångö’s delicious seafood. If you are traveling in a group, it is also great to book a group/conference activity.
On Kajkanten’s sauna raft, you can enjoy sea swimming, a hot tub, and a wood-fired sauna—all surrounded by stunning views of the sea and cliffs. Book the raft for your family or group of friends and indulge in a sauna and a swim, a cherished experience all year round.
Pilot operations were vital on Vrångö, and the profession was often passed down through generations. In the 1930s, the pilots moved from Vrångö to Vinga, but the small red house at the lookout remains as a reminder and has become a symbol of Vrångö. Climb the stairs and watch the sunset from here—the view is unbeatable.
Beach clean-up is a fun and important activity that everyone visiting us can take part in. It's a great way to give back to the place you're exploring. We provide equipment with Plogga bags and can recommend coves where you'll likely make plenty of interesting finds.
Vrångö is known as the best swimming island for Gothenburg locals. There are several beaches and swimming spots to choose from, and if you venture out onto the cliffs beyond the walking paths, you're sure to find your own private cove or rocky ledge.
From May to October, you can rent a kayak on Vrångö. We provide all the equipment you need for your paddling adventure. We recommend contacting us a day in advance to book, so we can suggest a time when the wind conditions are suitable. Payment is made on-site at the Kajkanten reception.
Take a stroll down the pier to Hamnkrogen Lotsen. The restaurant also runs its own fish shop, and the rustic setting of the glass veranda, right in the harbor, offers a truly authentic West Coast experience. Taste Vrångö’s finest seafood – this is something you don’t want to miss!
On Vrångö, you'll find a total of 8 km of easily accessible hiking trails through the Vrångö Archipelago Nature Reserve: the Southern Hike, the Northern Hike, and the Tärnstigen Trail. You can hike here year-round, with each season offering its own unique beauty.
On Vrångö, you'll find two outdoor padel courts. Book your time online and stop by Kajkanten to rent balls and rackets.
Vrångö is a car-free island, and most people get around by walking since the distances are short. If you want to move faster or bring a bike on the ferry to visit Styrsö or Donsö, you can rent a bike on Vrångö.
Swimming in the sea all year round is both popular and beneficial. On Vrångö, there are a few swim ladders that remain in place throughout the year. If you book the cold bath package, you'll get access to Kajkanten's sauna raft with a sauna.

Kajkanten's employees are really passionate about giving their guests a great experience. Started with a guided tour with Håkan who told us about Vrångö and its history. The pilots delivered wonderful seafood to the party on the relaxation raft. A unique experience!
Första gången vi besökte Vrångö blev vi så förälskade att vi bestämde oss för att ta med närmsta släkt och vänner och gifta oss där. Vilket vi gjorde nu i augusti. The whole gang lived in Kajkanten's lake cabins, which are very cozy and have exactly what you need for a weekend in the archipelago. Håkan and other staff at Kajkanten are fantastic - nice, hospitable and helpful! They also helped us rent a venue where everyone could gather for celebrations.

An absolutely fantastic cozy and nice accommodation in Gothenburg's southern archipelago. We are very satisfied and would love to come back. All comfort was in the small boathouse. Vrångö is so nice. Nice visit to Hamnkrogen Lotsen with super tasty seafood. Caring and friendly staff.
