Swedish Riviera Places
Båstad
In the southernmost province of Skåne, Båstad is regarded by locals as Sweden's most fashionable resort, where ambassadors and local captains of industry have their summerhouses. Aside from this, it is best known for its tennis. In addition to the Båstad Open, a grand prix tournament in late summer, there is the annual Donald Duck Cup in July, for children from ages 11 to 15; it was the very first trophy won by Björn Borg, who later took the Wimbledon men's singles title five times in a row.
