Overview

Nynäshamn, south of Stockholm, is a major ferry port and the gateway to the southern archipelago. From here, you can reach Gotland and the Baltics, and excursions to islands like Nåttarö or Utö also depart. The lively Fiskehamnen defines the maritime flair, where you can buy fresh fish directly from the cutter. Originally conceived as a spa town, the city developed into an important industrial and transport hub in the 20th century. The coastal paths invite you for walks with views of the Baltic Sea. The Nynäshamns Skärgårdsmuseum offers insights into local maritime history. The summer months are ideal for island explorations; spring and autumn offer a quieter alternative.
