context_section_description: The settlement can be divided into four areas: Löddesnäs in the north-west, Borgeby in the north, Centrum in the central part of the town and Gamla Bjärred and Haboljung in the south.  A large yard named Bjerehof within the settlement has given its name to the eponymous dwelling area in central Bjärred, along with a school and sports hall.  What is now the central part of Bjärred was formally Högsäters orchard, founded by Eric Jungquist in the beginning of the 1920s.
  Along the beach in Löddesnäs in north Bjärred there is a nature reserve whose main feature is the 10–15 m high wall, Littorinavallen, which runs parallel to the beach.  Above the wall in an meadow named Gyllins meadow, after the owner of a large part of Bjärred in the 1900s.  The river Lödde å runs into the Öresund north of Bjärred, where there is also a bird-watching tower.
  The village has a shallow beach on the Öresund, with bathing jetty which, at 524 m, is one of the longest in Sweden.  During 2004 an outdoor baths opened at the end of the jetty, which also houses a restaurant.
