About Pater Noster
PATER NOSTER, this iconic island off Hamneskär, is not just a place—it is a journey through history and nature. With roots dating back to the 17th century, the island has witnessed fishing history and has now been transformed into a modern gem on the West Coast.
Prominent on the island is the majestic Pater Noster lighthouse, which stands proudly above the horizon. With its distinctive design and imposing presence, the lighthouse has been an invaluable guide for sailors for centuries. Its light shines out over the roaring sea and surrounding cliffs.
This historic site has undergone an enchanting transformation into modern accommodation and an exclusive restaurant, preserving both its authentic charm and timeless beauty. Here we do yoga on the cliffs and meditate in the Pater Noster lighthouse with the most amazing views.
We explore the winding paths, breathe in the salty sea air, and allow ourselves to be seduced by the magnetic presence of the lighthouse.
Pater Noster invites us to a unique experience where history meets unspoiled nature. Whether you are fascinated by the history of the lighthouse, drawn to the beauty of nature, enjoy the well-being of Ulrica's yoga classes, or long for a relaxing retreat by the sea, Pater Noster will make your heart beat a little faster.
Pater Noster has been written about all over the world and won the 2022 Tourism Award of the Year.
