What to expect
Fårö is a Baltic Sea island located northeast of Gotland, Sweden. The island is known for its natural beauty, with fine sand beaches, barren landscapes, and unique limestone sea stacks called 'raukar'. Fårö has a rich history, with the first settlers arriving over 4,000 years ago, and it has been a popular summer resort for many years. The island is also famous for being the home of Swedish film director Ingmar Bergman, who lived and worked on the island for over 40 years. Visitors can explore the island's many beaches, including Sudersand beach, and discover the island's unique rauks at Langhammars, Digerhuvud, and Gamle Hamn. The Bergman Center, a cultural center dedicated to Ingmar Bergman's life and work, is also located on the island and offers seminars, films, and tours. Additionally, visitors can enjoy delicious food at one of the island's many restaurants and cafes, such as Crêperie Tati and Sylvis döttrar

Family trip to Gotland: tips and inspiration for a successful holiday on the island
Activities: We took the car ferry to Fårö. It was Midsummer's Day, so we avoided the usual queues. We visited Sudersand beach, enjoyed a midsommar celebration at Lauters, and drove along the coast
Highlights: We enjoyed the smooth ferry ride and the beautiful scenery of Fårö. The midsommar celebration at Lauters was especially great, with the kids helping to dress the maypole and dance around it. The sand at Sudersand was "as fine as potato flour" ✨
