Europe Sweden Gotland Top 10 Gotska Sandön

Overview

Gotska Sandön

The guide was updated: 2024-02-23

North of Fårö, Gotska Sandön is the remotest island in the Baltic. Miles of sandy beaches and a peace that is rare nowadays, make this a unique spot... A hidden treasure, you could say. You can reach the island by boat from Nynäshamn or Fårösund, from May and September. Cottage or tent accommodation. Most visitors stay several days, but day-trips operate from Nynäshamn.
