Lysekil is a small town on the west coast of Sweden, in Bohuslän. It’s known for its pretty harbour, with a mix of old wooden houses and modern apartments, and its lively nightlife.
There are several good restaurants and a few pubs, as well as a few small shops. The town is surrounded by beautiful nature, with forests and mountains just a short drive away.
Lysekil is where I spent every summer growing up, and I really like the place. It is a typical Swedish summer town on the west coast with nicely curved cliffs and a few beaches.
The town itself is very different throughout the year. Going there during the off-season gives you the impression that it is very slow and rather empty, while the population grows by several hundred percent over the summer and everything comes to life. I like both experiences, one for its calm and almost meditative feeling when heading down to the ocean completely alone, and one for the joy of enjoying the summer after a long cold and dark winter.
Go here during the summer and enjoy Swedish summer with the Swedes when we are all happy and enjoying our vacation. Enjoy an ice cream by the ocean, take a dip, play mini-golf, and eat something made with the local seafood.
