Kåseberga
A small fishing harbour beneath the Ales Stenar stone ship setting, with smokehouses serving hot-smoked herring and salmon, the most popular place to eat fish on the Österlen coast.
Kåseberga is a small fishing village about 20 km east of Ystad. Around the harbour are several traditional smokehouses (rökeri) selling smoked herring, eel, salmon and prawn sandwiches, and you can eat at outdoor tables by the water. Visitors usually park in the harbour car park, eat smoked fish, and then walk uphill to the Ales Stenar, or follow the coastal path toward Sandhammaren. It gets crowded in summer, and on weekends you may queue at lunchtime. In winter, some shops keep shorter opening hours.
Opening hours
Shops about 10:00 am–6:00 pm (summer)
