Lysingsbadet Bastubadet

Lysingsbadet Bastubadet is a public swimming beach on the Baltic Sea coast with a sandy shore and designated swimming zones. The site includes modern shower facilities, restrooms, changing areas, and a seasonal café for visitors.

The site emerged as a recreation area during the development of public bathing facilities across eastern Sweden in the 20th century. Over the decades it became an established summer destination for visitors to the Västervik region.

This site is a gathering place where locals and visitors experience the Swedish tradition of summer bathing by the sea. You can see families and friends spending time together in the water and on the beach during warm months.

Visitors should be prepared for windy conditions and monitor water quality, especially after heavy rain. The site works best on calm, sunny days and suits half-day or full-day visits.

The complex includes specialized bouldering climbing areas alongside the swimming zones. This makes the site unusual as it combines multiple outdoor activities in one location.
