Steamship Cruises to Blidösundet and Norrtälje

Join us on a historic journey through the archipelago aboard one of Sweden’s last coal-fired steamships still in regular operation. From Skeppsbron to Blidö and onward to Norrtälje, you’ll glide through postcard-perfect straits while the steam engine thumps as it has since 1911. Onboard, enjoy delicious food, beautiful views, and an unforgettable evening in the heart of the archipelago.

Steamship S/S Blidösund

Experience a summer tradition with over 100 years of history!

Join us on a summer journey through time and discover S/S Blidösund – the steamship born out of determination and local pride. In the early 1900s, the residents of Blidö grew tired of Waxholmsbolaget’s inadequate service and took matters into their own hands. With funds raised and a newly formed shipping company, their own ship was launched in 1911: Blidösund.

Today, S/S Blidösund is a living cultural heritage and one of Sweden’s last coal-fired passenger ships still in regular service. When you step onboard and head through Blidösundet towards Norrtälje, you’re not just traveling through the archipelago – you’re traveling through a piece of Swedish history marked by courage, community, and initiative.

Blidö offers sparkling bays, lush forests, and a peaceful summer calm. In the heart of Blidösundet, you’ll find small harbors, swimming cliffs, and charming stops along the way. Gliding into the strait on this classic vessel is like stepping straight into a postcard from the early 20th century. Once ashore, a memorable archipelago experience awaits you.

After visiting Blidö, the journey continues to the final destination, Norrtälje – the heart of Roslagen. Here you can stroll through the picturesque town center, enjoy a waterside dinner, or explore small shops and galleries. Nature lovers will find beautiful coastal walking trails.

For those who prefer to return in the evening, there is a direct bus (676) from Norrtälje center to Tekniska högskolan in Stockholm.
