Not my favourite part of the Swedish coast, rather ordinary villages and a tenancy to rather smelly sea weed. However our sail from Bornholm took us to Skillinge (pronounced schillinga) which is a pretty fishing village with narrow cobbled streets and the next days sail took us to Skane where we enjoyed the snorkel trail, though the water was a bit too cold to take the time to see everything that the sea bed labels described.
I am continually puzzled as to why these old fishing harbours were sited where they are,seemingly stuck out into the sea. We think that some small natural feature, a small river or a slight bay or a shallow lagoon, must have existed before the present harbours were built.
