Nestled on the picturesque island of Tjörn, near Stenungsund (58°31′ N 11°05′ E), Björholmens Marina is a tranquil waterfront hotel and marina offering stunning sea views. While sometimes mistakenly associated with Denmark, it's a true Swedish gem. This charming marina provides direct access to the scenic Bohuslän archipelago, renowned for its exceptional sailing conditions and breathtaking landscapes.

The modern facilities of Björholmens Marina were highlighted in travel guides in the early 2020s.
