Join us for lobster fishing!

Join our experienced fishermen for an unforgettable day at sea and take part in one of Bohuslän’s most treasured traditions – lobster fishing. With our own lobster pots, everything is prepared for you: guidance, equipment, and the thrill of hauling up your very own catch.

Out on the water, you’ll breathe in the crisp sea air and watch the rugged archipelago pass by. You may also spot seals on the rocks, and with some luck even the shy harbour porpoise – a small, dolphin-like whale native to these waters.

After the trip, the lobster is cooked by the pier and later served as a special dinner in our restaurant. Combined with the unique setting of the Weather Islands, it’s an experience of food, nature and tradition you’ll never forget

Book your lobster fishing package – perfect for families, friends, or corporate groups.

The package is available for from September through the end of November.

If you want your own bathroom, SEK 200 per person per night is added.

Boat transfer round trip from Hamburgsund can be arranged at an additional cost of SEK 450 per person.

Accommodation
HOW MANY HOTELROOMS DO YOU HAVE?

We have 22 rooms & 53 beds.

General
IS IT OPEN IF I WANT TO GO INTO THE PILOT STATION TOWER?

The pilot station tower is run by volunteers. They work as good as daily during high season and more sporadically during low season. When in place, a flag is clearly visible from the restaurant. You can then enter the tower and also climb all the way up for a 360-degree view of the islands. There is a schedule where you can check in advance, and read more about the work the association does. That link can be found here.

 

CAN I TAKE MY OWN BOAT OUT TO THE ISLANDS?

Absolutely, we have a guest harbor with room for 25-30 boats but we do not make reservations in the guest harbor. When the weather is good and the winds are in the right direction, there are many good natural ports around the island. On the west side is Strömsund, where there is good shelter and mooring possibilities.

WHERE CAN I PARK?

Look at the link right here, you’ll find a map with all the parking locations in Tanum Municipality.

HOW LONG IS THE TRIP TO THE ISLANDS?

Normally, the journey directly from Hamburgsund takes about 35 – 40 minutes depending on the winds, if the boat goes by Fjällbacka it takes about an extra 15 minutes. From Fjällbacka out to the islands it also takes about 40 minutes, so the total time Hamburgsund – Fjällbacka – Väderöarnas Värdshus is about an hour.

FROM WHERE DO THE BOATS DEPART?

They usually run from Hamburgsund, just to the left side of the ferry crossing to Hamburgö. During the high season they go on regular trips from Fjällbacka and Hamburgsund. We can also pick up in Fjällbacka during low season if you let us know in good time. If you wish to go from elsewhere, we will gladly help you during the low season, but during the summer when the boats go on a regular tour list, we have a difficulty at catching up with extra stops.

DO THE BOATS MANAGE ALL KINDS OF WEATHER?

Yes, our catamarans are specially built to endure all kinds of weather and winds. They are from England and can manage winds up to 30 knots, it just takes a little longer to get to the islands. If you feel you might get sea sick we recommend you to take a sea sickness pill, even though the trip is not that long.

ARE YOU OPEN ALL YEAR AROUND?

Yes! We are! During off-season we are only open when we have reservations, make sure to give us a call before you decide you want to visit us.
