Stockholm Archipelago

The Stockholm Archipelago is one of the most remarkable regions of Sweden, yet it’s still a well-kept secret. It’s made up of over 30,000 islands, islets and skerries, of which only about 1,000 are inhabited, offering a unique escape in both summer and winter. Accessible from central Stockholm all year round via historic white boats, some of which date back over a century and are still steam powered yet well-preserved, visitors can take a short excursion for just a couple of hours, to a day trip or longer, with an overnight stay.
