THERE’S ALWAYS SOMETHING HAPPENING ON VÄDERÖARNA!
Keeping up with and adjusting in all the different seasons is a challenge to say the least – buzzing outdoor furniture in the event of a storm warning, rescheduling departure times depending on the weather forecast. Start heating systems in all cables to treatment plants and desalination systems before the frost comes – we don’t want to be without water!
For several years we have been expanding and renovating the old pilot families’ houses into modern hotel rooms – right now we have one house left to renovate which should also be rented as a self-catering hostel – as I said, there is always something happening on the Väderöarna!
AFTER CHRISTMAS SALE
After the christmas rush, it can be nice not to have to think, but to let someone else take care of everything. Then book our After christmas sale, which includes everything with an extra golden edge.
DATYRIP WITH CHRISTMAS LUNCH
Leave the mainland and come to us on the Weather Islands and enjoy a good Christmas lunch. A short trip from Hamburgsund is all that is required.
GIFT CARD
Give away a piece of Bohuslän to someone you like. Buy a gift card of any amount that can be used for food, drinks, accommodation or boat transport. Or why not spoil, for example, the bride and groom with a Väderöpackage?
SUSTAINABILITY
The weather islands’ nature is extremely valuable and the area is its own nature reserve. Both on land and under the sea surface there are unusual environments worth protecting. Among other things, one of Sweden’s two living coral reefs is located here.
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.
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.
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.
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.
We have 22 rooms & 53 beds.
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.
Look at the link right here, you’ll find a map with all the parking locations in Tanum Municipality.
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.
