Småskär and Finnskär are two closely neighboring islands in the northwest of the Swedish sector of the Bay of Bothnia, in the Luleå archipelago.

Småskär and Finnskär to the east were previously collections of reefs that grew together into islands due to post-glacial rebound.

The two islands have many excellent habitats for birds, including ponds, shallow bays and old growth forest.

Småskär and Finnskär are part of a bird sanctuary where it is prohibited to hunt waterfowl and ducks.

Outside the chapel is an old stone circle, once the place where meetings were held to decide on fines and other penalties for those who did not observe the Sabbath or follow the rules of the parish.
