Sweden · Archipelago boats around Karlskrona
Blekinge ferry routes & schedules
Blekinge is Sweden's smallest coastal region, and its ferries work the archipelago around Karlskrona — a UNESCO-listed naval city spread across islands in the Baltic. Blekingetrafiken's boats connect the mainland with the inhabited islands offshore, a low-key network away from the summer crowds further north.

About
Ferry travel in Blekinge
The Karlskrona archipelago
Karlskrona was built across a cluster of islands as a naval base, and its UNESCO World Heritage old town still looks out over the water. Blekingetrafiken runs the passenger ferries out to the surrounding archipelago islands — Aspö, Hasslö, Tjurkö and their neighbours — as part of the regional public-transport system, serving both residents and summer visitors. They're foot-passenger and small-vehicle services; check the seasonal timetable, which thins outside summer.
