Byxelkrok Harbour

Byxelkrok sits at the northern tip of Öland, a quietly charming spot where a historic fishing village meets a working ferry terminal connecting to the Swedish mainland. You anchor off here and get a real sense of old Öland — compact, weathered, and genuine. The village itself is worth a wander, with small shops and the kind of low-key harbour atmosphere that hasn't been polished for tourists.
