Beach in Gothenburg
The Gothenburg Archipelago is a chain of car-free islands reachable by cheap public ferries (included in the city transit pass). Free to walk and swim. Vrango, Styrso, and Brannso islands have rocky swimming spots, fishing villages, and walking trails. Budget travelers buy a day transit pass, take the ferry, and spend a day island-hopping in the Swedish west coast archipelago for the price of a bus ticket.
