Väderöarna, Archipelago in Tanum Municipality, Sweden
The collection of 400 islands and islets stands 15 kilometers west of Fjällbacka along the Bohuslän coast within the Skagerrak waters.
From 1966 through the 1700s, lighthouse keepers maintained navigation safety from these islands, ensuring safe passage for maritime traffic.
The islands transformed from a maritime navigation center into a natural reserve, supporting multiple species of seabirds in their native habitat.
Visitors reach the islands through regular boat services departing from Fjällbacka, with tours operating according to seasonal water conditions.
The archipelago contains numerous rock formations sculpted by water and wind, creating natural shapes across its scattered landmasses.
