Strandskydd

Shoreline protection (strandskydd) is a ban on building close to shores, normally within 100 metres, for everyone's access and for the sake of nature. It is meant to keep shores open to the public and to preserve habitats for plants and animals near water. Exemptions can be assessed, but the protection sets the limits for building near lakes and watercourses.
