Marinas in this destination have not yet been added to the catalogue.

A day in Vaxholm unfolds beside the archipelago’s boat traffic: yachts, ferries and excursion vessels pass the waterfront. Small streets, wooden houses and cafés lie behind it. The fortress opposite the town explores the defence of Stockholm’s sea approaches; visiting it involves a crossing to a separate island.
