Set foot in the archipelago, not just sail past it
A guided boat trip heads out from central Stockholm into the archipelago to Vaxholm, a town of wooden waterfront houses around a sixteenth-century fortress that once guarded the sea approach.
You spend the day exploring Vaxholm on foot with the guide, a real visit rather than a view from a passing boat.
