Nynashamn Excursions

Nynashamn, which lies about 60 km south of Stockholm, is well known for being one of the places on the Swedish mainland from where ferries to the island Gotland depart. This is a hugely popular destination for Swedes of all ages in the summer months. While interest in the area as a potentially useful port grew from the mid-19th Century, it was only with the opening of the railway to Stockholm in 1901 that Nynashamn started to develop. During the early 20th Century, Nynashamn also became well known as a spa town. In 2016 Ports of Stockholm began to offer a new quay solution for the cruise traffic at the Port of Nynashamn using a pier known as a Seawalk, a retractable, maneuverable floating pier.
