Crab fishing

March 15 – June 15. We can guarantee that you get crabs with you home. Crab fishing trips are suitable for everyone.

The guide and skipper Bosse has created something very special. The tour was personal, fun and entertaining. On the way to and from the island of Vinga, exciting stories from the past were told. Will recommend this tour to several people in my vicinity. Thank you Bosse for a fantastic afternoon on your boat!

Great guided tour to Vinga with Captain Bosse at the wheel. We heard a very interesting story during the trip out to Vinga. Can really be recommended

Kerstin P

The trip to Vinga was really pleasant, and the captain of the ship kept the box in his very own way, we heard about not only Evert Taube but also about seals and German submarines etc. Highly recommended!

AoMiLund

So fun and interesting, our kids thought the seal safari was a highlight. We had a wonderful afternoon. It is noticeable that Bosse has a burning interest in history, and he conveyed that so nicely to us who were on the boat trip.

There are approx. 10 restaurants /bars/ cafes, in the region of 20 very high-class shops, including a fine fish shop they are all well worth a visit.

Just outside the harbor is a beautiful swimming spot, Hönö Klåva is an active fishing port, there boasts a large guest harbor for leisure boats inc. of parking spaces for mobile homes.

A new hiking trail starts at the ferry port and passes Hönö klåva.

In spring April-June and autumn Sept-November Hönö Boat Tours depart from Fotö old Harbor, (all fishing trips depart from Fotö) Fotö is genuinely beautiful.
