Sankt Anna skärgård south of Söderköping is one of Östergötlands’s most beautiful archipelagoes – thousands of islands, holmar and cut in a soft transition from protected inner archipelago to opener water. One of the east coast’s best and most accessible sea kayaking areas.
Paddling in Sankt Anna
The labyrinth-like inner archipelago is relatively protected and fits even less habit, while the outer parts provide habit paddlers with opener water. With thousands of islands there are endless tour opportunities, from day trips to multi-day adventures with tentation.
Good to know
Rent kayak and canoe at Kajakparadiset or S:t Anna Kajak in Tyrislöt. Bring a chart, keep track of the weather and respect bird protection areas and the right of public access at breaks and tents.
