Gotland is Sweden's largest island with a breathtaking landscape of woodlands, vast heaths and flowering meadows, the island is a rich environment for agriculture. Spend the afternoon exploring and sampling some of the best the island has to offer.
Start by visiting 1 of the 92 medieval churches still in use on the island and admire the beautiful architecture and style.
Continue to Stafva Farm, which has been in the Corswant family for five generations. Milk production is king here, and you will taste some of the fantastic locally produced cheeses together with the farm's homemade jam.
Make a short stop at Gnisvärd, a picturesque fishing hamlet that dates back to 1700. Nearby is the Gnisvärd Ship Grave, a significant place of burial dating from the Bronze Age (about 600 BC). The grave consists of stones standing on their edge in the form of a ship. It was believed that the metaphoric ship would carry the departed chieftains on their voyage to eternity.
Following your Gotland exploration, return to the pier.
