On a fine summer day in Stockholm, not much will beat the archipelago island of Fjäderholmarna! This island is located only 20 minutes from the city center and has all you need.
Wether you’re looking for a place to go for swimming and sunbathing, want to try out some Swedish food or just stroll in nature, Fjäderholmarna most definitely makes the cut. It’s called Stockholms closest archipelago islands, which of course refers to the fact that it only takes 20 minutes by boat to get there. During summer, you can catch a ferry to the island from both Strandvägen and Slussen, with Strömma, Waxholmsbåtarna or Fjäderholmslinjen.
Here’s three recommendations for things to do on Fjäderholmarna:
1. Visit the restaurant Fjäderholmarnas Krog or The Smokery. Here you’ll find delicious Swedish food – everything from classics to crayfish.
2. Enjoy a drink at Fjäderholmarnas own brewery. Here you’ll find thirst quenching beer directly from the island. Yum!
3. Buy a souvenir at one of the many craftshops available here, everything from glass blowing to weaving can be found here.
And if you’re there on a sunny day, don’t forget a towel to take a dip in the water from the many cliffs found here!
