Welcome to Luleå Archipelago

Luleå and its surrounding area has a great deal to offer you as a visitor, both summer and winter. Enjoy the Archipelago’s outstanding natural beauty, discover its exciting cultural history and meet the friendly inhabitants.
Relax in secluded spots, take a trip on your own sailing boat or hop on one of the ferries plying between the islands. There are also a number of small tourist enterprises in the Archipelago and their staff are just waiting to make your visit a really special one.

These pages contain more detailed information about the Luleå Archipelago.
Here you can find out why the Luleå archipelago is so special, why it is part of the only brackish-water archipelago in the world. You can also learn about the animal and plant life in the Archipelago or find out how many jetties and landing stages there are. All this and much more can be found on the Facts and figures pages.

Hail and farewell...
(and hail one day again, we hope!)
