description
Stora Kornö lies just 7 nautical miles southeast of Smögen, but is the complete contrast to Smögen. Here there are no restaurants, tourist shops, or luxury yachts. There are only old houses, some sheep, and a kiosk that sells ice cream and postcards. A peaceful idyll. Stora Kornö is said to be Sweden's best-preserved fishing harbor. Here you will find old timber cabins and old, charming houses. There are no permanent residents left, but the descendants of the fishermen use the houses as summer homes and take good care of them.
It's nice to take a walk on the island, and a path leading southward brings you to a grazing area for sheep. Further out on the southeast side, there is a small cave carved out by ice and water. Towards the southwest, you come to a beach with skerries outside. On the northeast side of the island, there is the most popular bathing beach. It is sheltered from the southwest, but the beach itself is moderate.
A large house is used as a summer camp for children, and there is a small kiosk that sells ice cream and postcards.
The guest harbor is a floating dock located outside the private berths. Only boats less than 9 meters are allowed to stay on the inside. The harbor is sheltered from southern and western winds but is exposed to northerly winds. This can cause some choppy waters outside the floating dock.
Neighboring island Lille Kornö is a similar place, but a bit smaller.

Swing at 12-15m. Watch out for pipelines and cables. These are well marked on the chart.
