The "waterfront" playground at Docksta Havet and the outdoor experiences in the area of Skule can be very special: we hope to be able to give people & sailors a variety of ways to experience Höga Kusten's "regeneration" and to give a chance to find their own special reason for being drawn to our coastline.

The first exhibit to learn Inbound Marketing in Sweden

People have transformed how they consume information, research products and services, make purchasing decisions and share their views and experiences. This is the new world of marketing: one where people have their needs met and their questions answered. Where marketer's goal is to provide us with information that we want, "when" we want it. Now that’s marketing we love.

The experience and the suggestion of his photographic works helps to underline the importance to re-discover and keep memory also of the places where the "world" of land and the sea meet each other. During the summer 2006, Docksta Havet hosted the preview of the exhibition Ephemerae of Nik Ferrando.

High Coast Sailors, what's next at Docksta Havet Base Camp?

Next summer don't miss to sail to Docksta! Walking, biking, hiking and running from the piers of the marina you'll discover the stunning natural area around Skuleberget and a lot of outdoor activities and events that people have enjoyed putting them together to provide you with a great "taste" of the High Coast.

Docksta Havet occupies a private substantial surface area of 9,000 sq. m facing onto the sea on the Dockstafjärden.

It is characterised by a development plan which includes the piers of the private gästhamn, the banks, the new building housing the marina's facilities, the main building (the "Havets Hus" is the headquarter) with the terrace and the hall with a fine seaview, the working Docks, the boat houses and a number of service facilities.

The marina in Docksta is an accessible point of contact "between land and sea" on the High Coast World Heritage.

Docksta as an unique position in the heart of the Höga Kusten. Thanks to its geographical location and visibility connected to its position overlooking the sea, intersecting the E4, Docksta Havet exploits an exceptional relationship with the seaside, the village and the natural area around the Skuleberget.

In the Seventies the marina in Docksta experienced a period of great bustling activity. Then the momentum was lost.

In few decades sailing and sea enthusiasts have seen themselves progressively deprived of a marina that by the end of the Seventies was offering the maximum level of facilities and also provided the only refueling point for sailing boats in the fjord close to the E4.

Looking at the situation of the harbour and the area before April 2006, you see how fast can be the decline of any social and tourist activity as a consequence of the lack of conservation of the structure or the loss of organizational push. So, sailors and long distance cruisers, particularly, were not coming to Docksta anymore.

Docksta Havet was born to restore unity to the management of the area, structures, activities and facilities which are part of the marina.

Early in April 2006, the "project" started immediately with a new local organization - Docksta Havet AB which, supported by private investments, reintroduced facilities with an extraordinary maintenance works on the piers and buildings.

By buying the property and deciding to restore the "vitality" of the marina in Docksta, Docksta Havet has warded off a real danger of disappearing having prevented that a logic of dismantling prevails.

On June, 1st 2006 started the first seasonal opening of the Base Camp, with safe moorings and confortable services fully operative and available for sailors and cruisers visiting the guest harbours.
