EKSTAKUSTEN

The most beautiful place on the island to watch the sun set behind the island of Stora Karlsö. Nearby is a charming little fishing village called Djupvik. The Eksta Coast Nature Reserve stretches from Djupvik to Hammarudden. It is a beautiful stretch of Gotland's coastline, with a view of the two small Karlsöarna islands. In the central part of the reserve is Kronvall, a fishing village that was once much larger than it is today and which, according to legend, is where the Danish army landed in 1361.
