The Beach

Sustainability

We give energy — for real

The sun powers the arena. Movement powers the people. Sustainability here isn't something we say — it's something we measure and show.

Environment

We run the arena on the sun

On the roof sits a 72 kW solar park and a ~290 kWh battery. In the middle of the day The Beach runs essentially entirely on its own solar power — what we don't use goes out on the grid to our neighbours, and the battery helps keep the whole power grid in balance, the very precondition for Sweden to build out more renewables. The building is heated with local district heating and was built with extra-insulated walls. That we've invested in solar and battery with a 15–20 year payback says what matters most: we're serious, and we intend to stay.

We share

The surplus we don't use goes out on the grid to our neighbours.

Stabilising the grid

The batteries help keep the power grid in balance.

One of Sweden's largest beach volleyball clubs — ~800 players a week, all ages. Founder-owned since 2006 and home base for both the women's and men's national teams.

Social

An arena that gives energy both ways

Around 800 people move here every week, all year round, at every age from 3 to 99. Our club is one of Sweden's largest — 443 members with competition licences (2025), nearly half of them women, and 250 children and youth players. We're the training base for the national team that won Olympic gold. That's public health, community and equality for real — an antidote to sedentary lives and loneliness.

The long game

Built and owned by the founders

The same two people have stood behind The Beach since 2006. David Cabrera and Mattias Magnusson own both the facility and the company that runs it, and for 20 years they have reinvested everything in the business. Mattias is head coach of the women's national team, and Rasmus Jonsson leads the men's national team together with Anders Kristiansson. Together with our staff, our coaches and the leaders of our club, we are a proud member of the Swedish Volleyball Federation with a deep, well-established partnership.
