Wander the culture trail at Herrgården, then enjoy coffee and cakes and shop for local handicrafts in the old shop, Skärgårdskraft. Take a refreshing dip at Hägnans beach or from the wonderful rocky shores around the island. The archipelago boats call at Herrgårdsviken and Finskan during the summer.
Transportation:There is an opportunity to get to Tjurkö by car or public transport, since the island has a bridge connection. During the summer season, it is possible to go on an archipelago boat.
