Hake Fjord

Hake Fjord is a deep water passage along Sweden's western coast with steep cliffs that extend for several kilometers. This waterway supports diverse marine life and is used by boats of different sizes.

Since ancient times, the fjord has served as a vital shipping route connecting coastal settlements together. Over the centuries, this passage was central to trade throughout the region.

Fishing communities along the shores have kept their traditional practices alive, with fishermen using the waters daily for their livelihood. You can see boats regularly in small harbors where people prepare nets and sell their catches.

Several entry points along the coast provide access, with places to launch boats and areas for recreational fishing. Visitors should be aware of tides and weather conditions that can change quickly on this open water.

Water quality has been systematically monitored through the VISS system since 2004 and carefully documented. This data has helped scientists better understand how the marine ecosystems in this area are changing.
