ACTIVITIES ON BRÄNNSKÄR
Relaxation or Active
The island is a paradise for outdoor activities. Take a paddling tour around the islands with or without a guide, or challenge each other on our archery range. A kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) tour is an excellent way to explore the archipelago—rarely do we get as close to nature as we do in a kayak. Book your spot online to ensure availability. Also, check out our Summer Activity Calendar 2025 to plan an event while you rent a cabin, stay at the glamping site, or spend the night in our guest harbor.
We offer easy activities such as frisbee golf, volleyball, and fun outdoor games like kubb or darts. The swimming beach, nature trails, and fishing from the rocky cliffs are always relaxing. We also rent out kayaks, SUP boards, rowing boats, and fishing equipment. For more information, visit the harbor office or café. Paddling through the rough and beautiful archipelago is an unforgettable way to experience nature up close. Book online to secure your spot!
