KingSeany Says: A restaurant on a boat. A popular place, closed in the winter. Serves a wide variety of local dishes, and drinks, at reasonable prices. It's all good so far...
KingSeany Says: Festers is a pub and club (a club on Fri and Sat til 2.00am). We went once, and the place was almost empty, so not much of an atmosphere. The food was really good, but quite pricey we thought. It was from the a la carte menu though. Service was good.
Dizzyhead Says: Well, if you go from the Stockholm area you go through Nynäshamn to Gotland. You can take different kind of ferries to Visby. Now they a have a ferry which only takes four hours. They have a parking place very close to the harbour.
Easy connection with Stockholm
El_Sueco Says: Local trains Stockholm - Nynäshamn will take a bit more than 1 hour.If you buy the tourist travel card for Stockholm it will be valid to go here on the train and on all local buses.
KingSeany Says: Although not a huge town, there is a good bus service, which operates all around the town, and surrounding area. Buses are red, and there are stops on most of the main streets. Timetables are displayed on the stops, and printed timetable booklets are available on the buses...
KingSeany Says: Trains go from Stockholm Centralen at least each hour - at 10.52, 11.52 etc, sometimes twice an hour at peak times. The cost is 60kr, or less with a discount ticket of 60kr or 110kr. The journey takes roughly an hour. Be prepared for delays or cancellations, especially in...
If you are wanting to do some serious shopping here, think again. The town is not particularly aimed at the tourist, more the local shopper. Expect the usual supermarkets, systembolaget off licence, a handful of gift shops, jewelers, photo shop, hair-dressers, a few clothes shops etc. Prices are not particularly competitive. If you are after a bargain, look elsewhere.

There are many people that like going out on the sea in motor yachts or in sailing boats. Take a stroll in the harbour and look at the boats. Some piers may have limited access.
Near from here is the Sailing Guest Harbour, which is nice to use when you come with your own boat
