Paradise

THE WESTCOAST

"We chartered Mathilda for our team kick off and had some true enjoyable days, valuable for our teambuilding"

We mainly sail on the west coast of Sweden, in the county Bohuslän. This is a wonderful part of Sweden with a lot of islands and small fishing villages with red fisherman cottages. During the summer the area is pretty busy with other boats but during the spring and late summer we often have a bay for ourselves.
