At the westernmost point of the island of Klädesholmen there is a wind shelter for birders. A great place to watch sea birds, especially with western winds.
Klädesholmen is an island on the coast of Bohuslän that is connected to the mainland via a bridge. Klädesholmen is located opposite Skagen, Denmark's most northerly point, and therefore on the migratory route of many birds. The place is best after strong western winds and storms when many seabirds are blown into this western outpost. Among the seabirds you can see are jegesréce, Üstökös kárókatona, Örvös bukó, Füstös réce, Fekete réce, Tengeri partfutó, csüllő, Alka, lumma, Fekete lumma, Szula, Északi búvár, Kis sirály, Nagy halfarkas and many more. Vándorsólyom and Rétisas are often seen sitting on surrounding rocks. Also a chance on parti pityer and Hósármány.
A newly built windshelter provides shelter againts the strong winds. You can park in the little port. Click on the P in the map to get directions to the parking.
