Stockholm By Boat offers fully private motorboat charters in Stockholm and the Stockholm Archipelago, with a professional licensed captain included. Choose your own route, departure time and stops — from sightseeing through central Stockholm to Vaxholm, Grinda, Sandhamn and other islands in the archipelago.
The boat is exclusively yours, giving you complete flexibility to tailor the experience around your group, schedule and preferences.
Your Route Through the Archipelago
Every trip is tailor-made to show you the best of Stockholm and the Archipelago. Cruise through calm canals, visit islands like Vaxholm or Fjäderholmarna, pass historic waterfront landmarks and enjoy the chance to spot seals and sea eagles along the way.
Popular routes include a 2–3 hour sunset cruise from central Stockholm, a 3-hour trip to Fjäderholmarna with dinner, Vaxholm and the inner archipelago in 4–6 hours, and a full day out to Grinda, Möja or Sandhamn in the outer archipelago.
Charters start from 3 hours, with half days and full days the most requested. We depart from central quays such as Strandvägen, Nybrokajen or Slussen, and can also pick you up at Vaxholm, Nacka Strand, Saltsjöbaden or an archipelago island. Your licensed captain, fuel, mooring, insurance, safety equipment and cleaning are included — no boating licence needed — and catering, drinks or a private chef can be added.
See Stockholm From the Water With Your Own Captain
A private motorboat charter is the most personal way to experience Stockholm. With your own licensed captain at the helm, you are free to relax and enjoy the journey while choosing the route, pace and stops along the way. Explore Stockholm's iconic waterfront, discover quiet coves, stop for a seaside lunch or enjoy a sunset cruise through the archipelago.
Everything is fully private and flexible, with no fixed schedule and no strangers on board.
