You can easily reach Str\u00f6mstad via the E6. There are exits from both north, at 112 Blomsholmsmotet (from Oslo – 130km) and south, at 111 Skee (from Gothenburg 160km).
The city center is divided into parking zones with different time limits and fees.
– In central Str\u00f6mstad you can stand for a maximum of 3 hours.
– Within walking distance (about 5-15 min walk to Kosterb\u00e5ten) you will find parking spaces from 10 hours up to 24 hours and 7 days.<\/p>\n

If you visit us during the summer months and want to park longer than 24 hours, we recommend our long-term parking at the entrances, H\u00e5lkedalen, Str\u00f6mstad gymnasium and Bojaren. 40 \/ day and you can stay up to 7 days.
In the summer (from mid-June to mid-August) there are free parking buses to the center (the square where the Koster boat departs). The buses operate according to the “Hop on – Hop off” principle between 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. 08:15 and 20:30 and stop times are about 20-40 minutes, but be sure to arrive early as summer traffic in the city center can cause delays.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
