SUN & BEACHES

In principle it is possible to take a swim
anywhere around the island.
If you prefer sandy beaches they are mostly
situated near the 3 harbours
.

There are more sand-beaches but not very many.
In many places the bottom is filled with rocks and pebbles, and bathing-shoes are recommended.

The old concrete-fortresses around the island are excellent as fishing-platforms and to use as base-camp.They are relics from WorldwarII and were an integrated part in what was called the "PerAlbin-Line" of defence.
