Porpoise safari around Kullaberg
See Kullaberg from the sea and keep an eye out for harbour porpoises, Sweden’s smallest cetacean. The boat trip along the dramatic coastline also gives you a close-up view of cliffs, coves and caves that are difficult to experience from land. A real holiday favourite if you’re looking for a little extra adventure.

Nimis
Hidden away on the eastern side of Kullaberg is one of Sweden’s most unusual works of art. Created by Lars Vilks, Nimis is an enormous wooden structure down by the rocky coast, and getting there is part of the experience. The hike is steep and challenging in places, so wear sturdy footwear and be prepared for a much tougher outing than an ordinary walk.
Pottery and crafts
Pottery is an essential part of Höganäs’ history, and today there are around 30 pottery studios to discover across the Kulla Peninsula.
