Karlskrona. In the middle of the archipelago.
Drop anchor in Karlskrona, the city that was founded in 1680, when Karl XI decided to build Sweden's new naval base here. More than 340 years later, the naval base remains and the well-preserved architecture and city plan impressed UNESCO, and gave the city World Heritage status in 1998. Wherever you go, you can see evidence of this; magnificent churches, grand squares, parade streets and fortifications that attract visitors from all over the world.
And all this on a number of islands, in the middle of the archipelago. An archipelago that UNESCO has designated as one of seven biosphere reserves in Sweden. Nowhere else in the world can you paddle around a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve while enjoying the amazing fortifications and buildings of a World Heritage city.
Welcome to Karlskrona!

Tips on fun winter experiences
Vinterbad + bastuflotte = En fantastisk kombination du inte får missa!
Badsäsongen tar inte slut i Karlskrona bara för att temperaturen sjunker och att eventuell snö lägger sig som ett vitt täcke över marken.
Tillhör du dem som iförd en tjock mössa gärna trotsar minusgrader och kyla för ett kvickt dopp? Då är du inte ensam. Antalet vinterbadare verkar bara bli större med varje år, och Karlskrona har flera badplatser som lämpar sig för ett snabbt bad, t ex badplatserna Hästö, Dragsö eller Saltö.
Ännu bättre blir det om du innan och efter badet kan njuta i en varm och ombonad bastuflotte i skärgården! Bjud med familj och vänner och relaxa i en fantastisk miljö!
Spring feelings
Spring arrives early in Karlskrona compared to the rest of the country, usually sometime in March. It is easy to know when spring is coming: The days get a little warmer and lighter day by day. Spring flowers appear, the trees are budding, birds are singing, farmers deliver fresh delicacies and there are lots of people outside enjoying the sun. All of this together – they make spring in Karlskrona quite remarkable.
World class fishing
Always dreamed of big pike or just attracted to the serenity that comes when you stand with roll rod at sunrise?
