The archipelago extends from Stockholm roughly 60 kilometers to the east.

The shipping routes from the Baltic to Stockholm pass through the archipelago and we do pass several ships. Cruising between the small islands through the Stockholm Archipelago is an experience. Weather allowing, the experience can be enhanced by enjoying a spectacular sunset from the deck that during summer months lasts until 11 pm.
