Fladalandet

Summer evening, the water is mirror-like. An island in the background. Boats moored in the bays of the wooded islet.

 

With its beautiful smooth rocks, Fladalandet has served as a popular natural harbour over the years. The bays and flads (a brackish-water lagoon) of Fladalandet are a paradise for boaters seeking a calm, sheltered harbour in which to stay overnight. 

Pack a picnic basket and come and enjoy an unforgettable day in the Ekenäs Archipelago National Park. Fladalandet is an excellent destination for day trips.

It is best suited for boats with a shallow draft. For sailing boats, there are also suitable sheltered areas that are good for mooring. But watch out for the shallows - they can be treacherous!
