The Swedish really make the most of their island paradise, and in many coves there are little wooden jetties leading to little wooden huts where there are composting toilets and often rubbish bins.
On the charts these features are shown as a door with a heart symbol, and indeed many of the real doors do have heart shaped openings. We call them love huts.
Inside the toilet bowl is just a long drop and sometimes there is a bag of compost and a cup with a note to throw in a half cupful after using.
We are told the local authorities arrange to call and clean and clear the facilities. One day we found some men near one such hut, and we asked one if he was the harbourmaster. ‘No, we are just here to shovel the shit’ he replied amiably in perfect English.
Have nerver thought about it as ” love huts “. But why not.
