Östergötland archipelago

Islands and Archipelagos

The Östergötland archipelago is the collective name for three separate archipelagoes off the eastern coast of Östergötland, Sweden, spanning more than sixty kilometers from north to south and about five kilometers from east to west, and containing some 8,888 islands. Its northern part, centered on Arkösund near the Vikbolandet peninsula, lies in Norrköping Municipality; its central part is Sankt Anna archipelago in Söderköping Municipality; and its southern part is the Gryt archipelago in Valdemarsvik Municipality, which adjoins the Tjust archipelago in Småland. The three municipalities jointly run a seasonal tour boat service called Skärgårdslinjen, while Östgötatrafiken operates land transit to the coast.
