Bovallstrand  

Bovallstrand is situated where the waves of the North Sea roll into the shelter of the Bottna fjord.
A genuine fishing community between Smögen and Fjällbacka dating back to the 16th century.
Back then, shipping and fishing were the main sources of livelihood here. Bovallstrand has also been a major port of shipment for the red granite quarried from Korpåsberget, which is located in the middle of the community.
Bovallstrand’s harbour is home to one of the best restaurants on Sweden’s west coast, Bryggcafét.

Sweden’s west coast
The fantastic light at Bottnafjorden attracted a school, Gerlesborgsskolan, in the 1940s.
At the intersection of the flat rocks of the archipelago and lush coastal meadows is the main cultural centre in the county of Bohuslän. The Gerlesborg School of Fine Arts is known throughout the world.

Soteleden, a hiking trail offering a choice of short and long hiking and running trails, passes through beautiful meadows, enchanting beech woods and granite rocks.
