About Saltholmen

Saltholmen, nestled by the coastline in picturesque Västra Frölunda, is much more than just a hub for boat traffic; it's a vibrant gateway to Gothenburg's southern archipelago. Here, you'll experience an authentic meeting point where the city's pulse fades away and the tranquility of the Kattegat takes over, with a fresh scent of salt and seaweed constantly reminding you of the open sea's proximity. This historic location has attracted visitors for centuries. Already in the early 1900s, Saltholmen was a popular destination for bathers as well as those seeking relaxation and an escape from the city's hustle, a tradition that lives on to this day.
