Ljunghusen beach cabins

Click here to enlarge this panorama or see an ultra high-resolution version.

Here's one more panorama that I didn't have time to process during the trip but which I liked enough to want to include here. It's the only one where you can see my own shadow, but the sun was too low and there was simply no way for me to hide my shadow in that of a tree.

The second half of August is already very late in the season, and these cabins were deserted when I arrived around dinner time on a Tuesday (Aug 19). Just on the other side of that little dune ridge is the Baltic, I promise, but it was flat and not being nearly as interesting as this double row of terraced cabins, which lets Swedes shelter from rain showers on a day out to the beach.

The cabins are used for changing clothes not shelter from rain showers.

I lived in Ljunghusen as a child, our beach hut "bad hytt" was only a few steps away from your photo. If you have more photos I'd love to see them.
Thanks,

It may be of interest that such beach huts on the English coast have fetched as much as £280,000 (€ 350,000 or SEK 3,300,000) when put up for sale.

I think I'd rather have a Swedish one!
