Explore the archipelago by boat when visiting Vrångö
Archipelago tour to Tistlarna, seal safari, or lobster fishing?
Join us for a boat trip to the outer edge of the archipelago.
Mattias, our local skipper from Vrångö, arranges boat tours all year round, departing from the dock in Vrångö Harbour – just steps away from Kajkanten’s hotel.
In summer, you can hop on a swimming excursion to Tistlarna, where you’ll have a few hours to explore, swim, and soak up the sun on this unique and remote island.
In spring and autumn, we offer guided archipelago tours with a short landing on Tistlarna, or seal safaris where we observe the seals from the boat.
