Kastor Boat Trips
Hönö
Join the sustainable oak boats Kastor and Pollux, backed by 60 years of experience in traditional, small-scale fishing along the beautiful west coast. Visit the seals’ rocky islets, step ashore on Vinga Island, or try your luck fishing in waters rich with seafood. Why not book a private tour with Seafood Safari on the Rocks when Bohuslän is at its very best?
Seafood Safari
For 30 weeks each year, from April through October, Kastor Boat Trips offers seafood safaris where you can join in catching crab, mackerel, or lobster. After the trip, you can either prepare your catch yourself or have it cooked and enjoy a seafood supper at one of the excellent restaurants in the harbor.
When the coastal weather is at its finest during July and August, private tours are available featuring crab fishing, cooking the catch in a large kettle, and indulging in seasonal seafood on the rocks on a cozy little island.
Seize the day
During peak summer season, daily one-hour sightseeing tours cruise through Hönö’s beautiful archipelago in search of harbor seals — perfect for anyone wanting to follow a spontaneous summer impulse.
If you prefer a longer excursion, join a trip to Vinga Island, enjoy a swim, and explore the famous lighthouse. Three hours later, you’ll return to Hönö after passing the seal colony and perhaps even catching a small mackerel along the way.
Even during the cold winter months, short visits are made to the wild and silent archipelago, where guests stay warm with thick jackets and hot drinks.
All exclusive
Just under an hour from Gothenburg Airport and the city center, the boats are based in their home harbor of Hönö Klåva.
The rugged winter cliffs and crystal-clear waters offer both relaxation and excitement over what the sea may provide. Bohuslän traditions are kept alive through fishing, freshly caught seafood, stone-oven baked bread, and the local specialty egg cheese.
