Gothenburg's Archipelago
Along the coastline outside of Gothenburg, the archipelago spreads out like a string of islands. Just a short journey from central Gothenburg, you can stroll among picturesque alleys, lovely beaches, in nature reserves and along fine walking paths. Gothenburg's archipelago with its harbours, bays, islands, and the wonderful population is a unique experience. In addition, there are plenty of activities where seal safaris, fishing trips, exciting food experiences, swimming and boat trips are just a few.
