Welcome to a salty experience in the southernmost archipelago of Gothenburg!
Join us for a lobster fishing adventure and a cozy evening at the waterfront restaurant Hamnkrogen Lotsen, complete with live music. Our local fisherman Mattias welcomes you aboard the fishing boat Glittskär in Vrångö harbor and takes you out to sea to haul up lobster pots while sharing fascinating stories about the island’s fishing heritage. If the weather allows, there may even be a stop at the remote island of Tistlarna.
After a few salty hours at sea, the boat returns to Kajkanten, giving you time to relax before enjoying a delicious seafood dinner — including freshly caught lobster — at Hamnkrogen Lotsen, just a few steps from your seaside cabin.

LOBSTER SEASON OPENING
Have you ever been on a small island on the West Coast during the first weeks of September? Then you know the frantic activity going on… Boats, lines, traps, wool sweaters, packed lunches, bait (or “kubemad,” as our dear fisherman friends call it) are all being prepared, because lobster fishing is about to begin! The first Monday after September 20th marks the start, and it’s almost impossible for everyone to get out through the harbor entrance with the rush that happens. Want to be part of this almost mythical ritual? Then book the best autumn experience!
Please note: We reserve the right to cancel due to bad weather or insufficient bookings (minimum 4 people per boat tour). We will inform you if the lobster fishing tour must be canceled.
