<\/span>It’s a pretty well known fact that Sweden can get pretty cold.\u00a0 That means that the second it finally gets a little bit warm in the summer, city dwellers evacuate Stockholm and head for the shore.\u00a0 The Stockholm Archipelago start just outside the city and consist of close to 30,000 small islands.\u00a0 About 60 km South of the city you’ll find Nyn\u00e4shamn, one of the most easily accessible archipelago since there’s no need for a boat to reach it from Stockholm.<\/p>\n

\"Nyn\u00e4s<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/span>During the warmer summer months many of the businesses in Stockholm close or have limited hours due to many of the residents being away, so there’s no need to worry about missing out on the big city.\u00a0 There’s plenty to see, do, and most importantly eat, in Nyn\u00e4shamn.<\/p>\n

Craft Beer<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Landsort<\/a><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>\u00c5ngbryggeri <\/a><\/span>(or steam brewery for the non-Nordic) has been brewing beer since 1997, way before the craft beer crazy.\u00a0 They’ve since won several awards for their brews and even partnered with American craft brewery, Dogfish Head.\u00a0\u00a0\u00c5ngbryggeri offers tours of their brewery and tastings in their tap room.\u00a0 It’s a great place to stop before a day on the water.<\/p>\n

See How the Sausage is Made<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sorunda<\/a><\/p>\n

I know, I know, you’re not supposed to do that, but I promise you won’t mind at the <\/span>Sorunda Korvfabrik<\/a><\/span> (Sausage Factory).\u00a0 The Sorunda Korvfabrik is a family operation providing award winning sausages of all kinds to the Stockholm Archipelago and surrounding areas.\u00a0 I wouldn’t recommend a visit to the factory to vegetarians, but if you like a good sausage, there’s something almost hypnotic about watching the process.\u00a0 Who doesn’t love a factory tour… oh, and of course there are samples!<\/p>\n

Smoked Fish<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/span>Perhaps the most famous of Scandinavian delicacies is smoked fish.\u00a0 Of course I’ve had smoked salmon (though rarely as good as this), but at <\/span>Nyn\u00e4s R\u00f6keri<\/a><\/span>, they smoke any and all manner of seafood.\u00a0 This was my first experience with smoked shrimp, and I have to say I’m a fan.\u00a0 I can see why they were selling them by the bag full.\u00a0 The fish shop sells hot and cold smoked fish and shellfish of every flavor and variety as well as a few different types of pickled herring.\u00a0 I’ve never been a picked<\/span><\/span> herring fan, something about a pickled fish is a bit of a turn off for me, but their curry apple pickled herring has totally changed my mind!\u00a0 If you’re anywhere near Stockholm, it’s worth a visit to Nyn\u00e4shamn just for this fish!<\/p>\n

<\/span>Sorundat\u00e5rta<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sorundat\u00e5rta,<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/span>Finish your day of savory fish and sausages with something sweet.\u00a0 You can’t leave Nyn\u00e4shamn without trying the <\/span>Sorundat\u00e5rta<\/span> because you may not get another chance!\u00a0 This cake is native to the area and each one is unique.\u00a0 Passed down from mother to daughter for generations, every family’s <\/span>Sorundat\u00e5rta<\/span><\/span> recipe is different.\u00a0 The only constant you’ll find is the ornate design on top (though, those vary too), and the filling of either apple sauce or prune jam.\u00a0 Originally the <\/span>Sorundat\u00e5rta<\/span><\/span> was saved for special occasions, but being in Nyn\u00e4shamn is occasion enough.\u00a0 The <\/span>Visit Nyn\u00e4shamn<\/a> website has a few different places to have a slice of <\/span>Sorundat\u00e5rta.\u00a0 Why not try them all and compare.\u00a0 No two are alike!<\/span><\/p>\n

Head to the Water<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/span>End your day in Nyn\u00e4shamn like any good Swede would.\u00a0\u00a0 Appreciate that the water is not frozen and find a beach, or better yet a spa!\u00a0 <\/span>Nyn\u00e4s Havsbad<\/span><\/a><\/span> has both!\u00a0 Relax in the warm waters of the spa, over looking the much colder (but still somehow warm enough if you’re Swedish) waters below and enjoy the midnight sun.\u00a0\u00a0 Not a bad way to spend a day outside of the city.<\/p>\n

\"Savor<\/a>

A view worth leaving the city for!<\/p><\/div>\n
