South of Skillinge, close to the rocky beach is Örnahusen. There are buildings on both sides of the coastal road.
Örnahusen was once a fishing village with about forty fishermen's cottages and outbuildings, located so close to the sea that in 1872, during the terrible November storm, they were all washed out to sea.
Örnahusen has never had a real harbor. The small foundations and boulders that lie a little way out from the shore have been built together with a stone jetty and have served as shelter and additional space. Much of the old community's charm has been preserved, but nowadays it is not the home of skilled seafarers. The whole area is now highly desirable and new construction is underway. Many of the old houses have been restored and modernized. Part-time residents live here, but also many year-round residents.
Two kilometers south of the village is the beautiful chalk-white and mile-long Kyhls beach, the first local in the long sandy beach area that attracts so many bathers, but also birdwatchers and hikers.
The buildings are mixed and in many properties there are activities of various kinds, crafts and arts and crafts.
Broadband and other modernities have made it possible for many people to move here to the idyll and take their professional activities with them. The entrepreneurs' association has many active members. Association life is lively. Skillinge IF has significant football activities for both boys and girls and in 2010 inaugurated Österlen's first artificial turf facility.
The nearest larger town is Skillinge, one kilometer north along the coastal road. There is a grocery store, ship's chandlery, restaurants, chapel, kiosk, maritime museum, theater, school, childcare and nursing home.
