Gateway to the Archipelago at Saltholmen

#holidayitinerary Saltholmen is a charming seaside spot just outside Göteborg, best known as the gateway to the southern archipelago. The ferry terminal is always buzzing with life as boats head out to the nearby islands, but Saltholmen itself is worth slowing down to explore. The rocky shoreline and open sea views make it a favorite place for a walk, especially in the evening when the light reflects beautifully on the water. During summer, locals come here to swim from the smooth granite rocks or small beaches, enjoying the relaxed coastal vibe.

There is a sense of calm despite the steady flow of travelers, and it feels like the perfect balance of activity and peace. Whether you are catching a ferry or simply soaking in the scenery, Saltholmen is a refreshing coastal corner of Västra Götaland.
