General presentation
Karlskrona and Blekinge
A baroque naval town extends over the islands of an archipelago known as the Swedish Garden.
The discovery of Karlskrona and the Blekinge revolves around the naval port of Karlskrona, Marinmuseum and Aspo Island. The stay thus alternates between urban life, island landscapes, coastline and heritage, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
