Discover why the 17th-century naval port of Karlskrona has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site as you cruise the beautiful archipelago and debark to explore Kungsholms Fort and Drottningskär Citadel.
Swim and snorkel off the islands of Utklippan, named for the photogenic lighthouse perched there, and enjoy the company of some of the hundreds of seals that call these waters home.
Discover curated experiences designed to ensure each moment ashore is uniquely rewarding. No matter which you choose, each excursion has been created to provide an exceptional travel experience. For those who prefer the freedom and flexibility of independent travel, the Concierge Ashore can transform tours into a private experience or craft an entire bespoke event just for you.
Military-maritime heritage, friendly ambiance, and easy access to outdoor adventures are all part of the urban fabric and Karlskrona. Only here, for example, can you paddle around a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve while admiring the well-preserved architecture and fortifications of a 17th-century UNESCO World Heritage City. In 1680, King Karl XI chose Sweden’s most southern archipelago for a new base for his Royal Navy, stretching over 33 islands.
