Start exploring the natural beauty of Stockholm with me, including the archipelago! Stockholm and its medieval city center is, in fact, built on 14 islands and sits on the banks of the archipelago, where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea. The vast Stockholm archipelago, made up of about 24,000 islands, fans out 80km from the inlet, and has fabulous boat connections departing directly from city central, making the islands accessible to visitors. With such an array of choice at varying distance, it will be important to pick your destinations ahead of time. If you’d like to experience the area with the enthusiastic eyes of a visitor, but the ease of the local, I can give you some suggestions. After living abroad for many years, working as a photojournalist and filmmaker, I've been rediscovering Stockholm, my home, with the lens. And what’s been the most fascinating to me is nature and the sea, and how very fortunate we are to be able to access it all right here, in our equally beautiful city. I’ll aim to provide you with some itineraries, maps and location guides to make it easier to choose among the gems. Feel free to make suggestions (as this page grows), or inquire about hiring me as a photographer and filmmaker or location scout. You’ll find my Instagram handle and website below. See you in the travel guides!
