Grebbestad

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Grebbestad is a small town situated in the commune of Tanum in the northern part of Bohuslän on the west coast of Sweden. The town has approximately 1,500 inhabitants, though this number can increase by as much as ten-fold during the summer. Grebbestad is known for the large number of restaurants, especially those specializing in seafood. The town is also the harbour where the majority of Norway lobster (in Swedish havskräfta) are landed, as well as oysters.

Also relating to the sea, though not particularly to food, the town is one of the places of origin of the Swedish action sports scene. The peak period for visits is from mid June until mid August with the absolute peak in July.
