Life around the Mediterranean

The Mediterranean Museum is exactly what it sounds like - a museum that focuses on historical collections from the Mediterranean countries and the Near East. The premises alone – a former bank building on Fredsgatan – are well worth a visit, with beautiful arches and high ceilings. But there are also lots of interesting artefacts, stories and facts that all touch on life around the Mediterranean in one way or another.

The Pike Hunter

Fishing (all year round)

Fredrik Beck, also known as the Gäddjägaren ("the pike hunter"), has won masses of fishing prizes and offers guided fishing trips where you're guaranteed to catch a pike. Usually a full day out with lunch grilled and eaten out on an island, but half-day tours can also be arranged. A fully-equipped sport fishing boat, life jackets, lunch and everything else you need is included. Tours take place in the Trosa archipelago, some of the best fishing waters in Sweden - especially if you're after pike. The journey there takes around 40 minutes and Beck will usually meet you quite early in the morning and you're back in Stockholm around 6pm.

Canoeing

Stockholm is famous for its exquisite waterfront location - so what better way to see the city than by sea? Rent a kayak or canoe and paddle from island to island to see the sights - no previous experience is necessary.

Experience the city

The best way to get around Stockholm.

Electric scooters

Getting around Stockholm quickly and smoothly is easier than ever. Often the only thing you need is an app. Explore the city on an electric bike, scooter, car or a classic vespa.

Segway (if you're feeling lazy) or bike (if you're not)

Segway is perhaps the most comical way of getting around town. For those in the mood for some exercise, bicycles are readily available for rent throughout the city - for both locals and tourists.

Taxi companies

Luxurious comfort

If you don't want to bother with city maps, changing buses and downloading apps for various electric scooters, taxis are always a safe bet. Get from A to B quickly and easily, without having to know anything more than the address.
