Sweden is a really wonderful country packed full of spectacular natural landscapes, distant wilderness, friendly locals, iconic coastal villages, stylish huge cities, and an enthralling history. With never-ending tiny villages and a lifetime worth of outdoor pursuits, Sweden is the ideal travel destination for both newbie tourists and veterans who want to get off the beaten path. Outside of a few polished cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg, Sweden travel is one big outdoor adventure, ideal for travelers in search of picturesque hikes and canals to paddle along. History has left its mark here, too, as you'll find out when you wonder at the country's Viking wrecks and medieval castles.
The Nordic country has a range of diving prospects, including wreck dives, ice dives, quarry, and cave dives within its Swedish waters. A short drive north of Malmö, Sweden (or Copenhagen, Denmark), you’ll get a precious Swedish gemstone. It’s a long granite peninsula pointing northwest into the Kattegatt, and crowning this cape is the Kullenberg Nature Reserve, an area very well regarded by local divers. The reserve features rocky, rugged, wooded shoreline and sharp ravines. The Stockholm Archipelago is the second-largest of all archipelagos in the Baltic Sea; additionally, it is Sweden’s biggest archipelago. Here, you’ll get incredible rock formations, ample marine life, and some really enthralling shipwrecks.
