Built around a sheltered harbour on Sweden’s Bohuslän coast, Grebbestad grew into a small fishing and holiday town. It faces the Skagerrak, whose granite islands and low skerries define the seaward fringe of northern Bohuslän. Grebbestad is closely associated with oysters: the local waters support harvesting of the European flat oyster, a food tradition celebrated each autumn during Grebbestad Oyster Day. Boats, waterfront buildings and seafood restaurants still make the harbour the town’s focal point. The UNESCO-listed Rock Carvings in Tanum are also in the surrounding municipality.
