8, From Sävö to Stendörren:

Tvären:

After we left the island Sävö we crossed the bay Tvären. Tvären is maybe an old crater from a meteorite. You can read more here.

We are now entering the nature reserve Stendörren (the Stone door).

Stendörren:

We anchor at Stendörren for one hour to take a walk around. It's not so easy to anchor with a big ship like this when there is no harbor.

2.6 meters depth.

We have just enough time to choose one of these, we chose to visit Stendörren, the main atraction.

An old boat slip from the time when this was a living fisher village.

Former place for Stendörren Inn, a place where all seafarer could stay for food and protection from bad weather.

Checking that M/S Saga Lejon is still there and waiting for us, we don't want to be left behind.

The boathouse with its old wooden boats.

Traditional built wooden boats.

Back on the ship.

We leave Stendörren through a narrow passage.

Now we are heading for the last stop, Nyköping.
