From August 1–9, around 100 organisations from the public, private and non-profit sectors offer a range of engaging and enjoyable activities. Meet scientists, try hands-on experiments, hike in coastal nature reserves, paddle a kayak, visit a lighthouse, listen to fascinating talks. Taste new food from the sea or experience something else from the programme. There’s something for everyone, and most activities are free of charge.

Västerhavsveckan is an annual theme week for the marine environment and stretches from Kullaberg to Strömstad, along the West coast. The programme will be published on vasterhavsveckan.se, where you can find the latest information.
