Synopsis
Join ICEBEAR as she heads out from Marstrand, Sweden’s sailing capital on its western coast. Sail south down the coast, past Copenhagen, around the southern end of Sweden and into the Baltic Sea. We’ll sail offshore in the Baltic and make a port call on the Swedish island of Gotland to explore one of our favorite Scandinavian ports – the ancient medieval city of Visby. We’ll end the trip with an overnight sail into Mariehamn in the archipelago of Åland – a territory of Finland.
