- Description
- Ryxö island nature reserve on Ryxö in Brofjorden, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden. The reserve comprises the entire island. To the left is Preemraff Lysekil Oil Refinery and down left is the quay of the old Rixö granite quarry. The quarry was operated by Skandinaviska Granit AB in 1875-1964 and most of the granite shipped from the quay was used to construct Autobahn in Germany. In the distance is the inlet of Brofjorden. Photo taken from a ledge on Busberget overlooking the old granite quarry.
