Skärså is a nice and well-visited old fishing village just north of Söderhamn. There is a sheltered harbor here and the small red boathouses are still there even though they are not used by many professional fishermen anymore. It is a pleasant walk to walk the semicircle of the bay from the parking lot and around to the smokehouse that is located furthest out to sea.
