Rent a house in the archipelago
Enjoying a few days of tranquility in the Stockholm archipelago—with swimming, fishing, and hiking, or simply doing nothing—is one of the best tips for summer.
Staying overnight on the Islands
Want to make the most of your archipelago getaway? Spending a night or two can enhance your experience.
Stay in a cabin village, a lighthouse, or even a tiny islet – no matter your choice, here are some tips to make your trip even better:
Book Early
During peak season, accommodations are in high demand, so it pays to book well in advance. This is especially true if you want to stay on one of the most popular islands or try something unique like glamping. However, cancellations do happen, so it’s always worth checking with the organizer for last-minute availability.
Visit During the Off-season
Take advantage of the quieter off-season. The archipelago is just as beautiful and peaceful then, and you’re more likely to find tranquility. Plus, you might snag a discount or discover accommodations at significantly lower prices than during peak times.
Plan Your Trip
The islands of the archipelago are breathtaking and offer unique natural experiences, especially if you venture further out. Some islands, however, are only accessible by private boat, archipelago ferries, or shuttles. Plan your trip in advance to ensure smooth travel to and from your destination, utilizing boat taxis, Waxholmsbolaget, or Cinderella boats as needed.
