Join junk picker wave that is spreading like wildfire across the world. Now we clean the beaches from caps, plastic bags, ropes and other rubbish that has blown ashore on Vrångö’s beaches and have a plogga day. We jog, walk or sneak along and pick up litter at the same time. Come join us and make a difference. On site are, among other things, beach picking professionals from the Västkuststiftelsen and divers from Hands 2 Ocean. With the help of the divers, it will be cleaned under the water surface and you who want to be a rope puller will be needed. Become an environmental hero too, now we do it together.

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.
