Ängholmen Anchorage

✨ Hidden gem

Ängholmen is a small island anchorage off the rugged Bohuslän coast in Tanums kommun, where the raw granite scenery and sheltered waters make it easy to lose track of time. You drop the hook here and get classic Swedish west coast wilderness — smooth skerry rocks, clear water, and the kind of quiet that's hard to find closer to the main fairways. The surrounding archipelago is UNESCO World Heritage territory, with Tanum's famous Bronze Age rock carvings just inland if you want to stretch your legs ashore.
