Arild

Rock walls, small caves and unusually salty water make Kullaberg one of southern Sweden's most popular dive areas.

Rent a board in Mölle or Arild and paddle along Kullaberg's coast or out on Skälderviken bay on a still morning.

Höganäs has made salt-glazed stoneware since 1835; see it at KKAM and Salthallarna, then visit working studios and the Easter art round.
