Lobster fishing Fjällbacka · Bohuslän · West Coast
Lobster safari
It's just as exciting as it sounds with a lobster safari. We set off on the boat early in the morning and try our luck with our lobster pots. During the trip, our skipper will show, explain and tell you about how lobster fishing is done.
You can pull the barrels up by hand and whitewash the catch. Afterwards, you can bait and throw the barrels back into the sea, just like professional fishermen do.
Most often there are lobsters in the tanks and sometimes there are even the occasional crayfish in them.

Lobster fishing in Fjällbacka and Bohuslän
It is not without reason that lobster is called the black gold of the sea. In 2024, the first lobsters of the year were sold for 51.000 SEK per kilo at the Gothenburg fish auction. But that is a bit off the record from 2012, when the premiere lobster cost 102.000 SEK/kg.
