The islands are the ideal destination for adventurous and curious travellers, looking for days of sun and sea, sports, entertainment and good food.

They're easy to explore, and thanks to the comforts on board, your holiday will already start on the ferry.
A trip to Åland means a plunge into nature, history and art! Here are some destinations you can’t miss:
→ Kastelholm Castle, dating back to 1380, was inhabited by Queen Margaret I of Denmark. Every year in July, a medieval festival is held here. If you want to learn more about the archipelago's past, visit the Museum of Cultural History, which traces 7500 years of human history on the Åland Islands.
→ Discover the creative side of the archipelago at the Åland Islands Art Museum. Many works by local and international artists are on display here.
→ Reconnect with nature! The islet of Kobba klintar is located at the entrance to Mariehamn harbour and is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The only buildings present are the lighthouse and the pilot's cabin. There is also a small bar serving drinks and refreshments. Then head north to Geta and walk along the beautiful Grottstigen path, where you can see caves and peculiar rock formations.
→ Explore Mariehamn, the only town on the islands. It has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, but also a lot to offer: restaurants, shops, city parks. At the eastern end of the archipelago is the fishing village Käringsund, now converted into a campsite. You can still see the boathouses reflected in the waters of the harbour.
→ Let your children play! At the Jan Karlsgården open-air museum, various recreational activities are organised for the little ones. The Leklandet playground in Eckerö offers plenty of inflatables to play with.
