Kalmar
Less than an hour’s drive and you will reach Kalmar, Kalmar Castle and the sea.
A walk among the old quarters near the castle and see the cute little wooden houses and then have a picnic up by the castle’s cannons – it has been a tradition in our family for many years. Kalmar has a charming center where there are several restaurants and cozy shops. Bathing in the sea without going to Öland is also fine. There are several bathing spots!

When Karlskrona was founded in 1680, it was one of Europe's most modern naval bases. The idea was that the city would protect Sweden against threats from the Baltic Sea. The well-preserved central parts of the military city were included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998.
