Brantevik
A right point in an old fishing village in Österlen, working with easterly storms.
Brantevik is a fishing village in Österlen, the south-eastern corner of Skåne. Its rock point gives a right when easterly or south-easterly storms cross the Baltic.
It doesn't work often, but it's one of the few Swedish spots that makes use of easterly swell.
