Bjuröklubb, Nature reserve and lighthouse complex in Skellefteå Municipality, Sweden.

The peninsula extends into the Bothnian Bay with a yellow lighthouse structure, three coastal viewpoints, and Västerbotten's longest sea sand beach at Storsand.

The area functioned as Jungfruhamn port during the 13th and 14th centuries for fishing and seal hunting until land elevation made it unusable by mid-17th century.

The fishing chapel, built in 1864, replaced an original 1658 structure and became a central meeting point for local fishermen before their maritime expeditions.

Visitors can access the site via an asphalt road leading to parking areas, with wheelchair-accessible wooden ramps near the café providing sea views.

The SMHI weather station at Bjuröklubb has maintained temperature and precipitation records since 1878, documenting the area's transition from subarctic to humid continental climate.
