Description

- At 10 am, we embark on a 1900's ship from Stockholm city centre to Vaxholm, a Swedish summer coastal town. - At 11 am, we arrive in Vaxholm and we take another short-ride ferry to explore the 16th-century fortress where battles were fought and military battalions scouted enemies arriving via the Baltic Sea for centuries. - Break for a picnic lunch and then we head back into town via the ferry. - Pass by the old artillery battery tracks on our way to the Vaxholm beach, a place where adults and children alike can enjoy a dip in the Baltic Sea. - Head towards some of Vaxholm's gems, like its main town square and a typical Swedish Midsummer café, where we enjoy some nice fika (pastries and drinks) by the seaside. - Around 4 pm, we return to Stockholm via public transportation. We arrive around 5 pm.
