Karlskrona lies in the Blekinge archipelago in the Baltic Sea. The town center, main harbor and the shipyard are located on the island of Trossö. The Naval Museum, officially recognized as the Museum of the Year 2015, is one of the major attractions of Karlskrona. Its rocky coastline is full of small boats moored by the locals who live in typical Swedish-style houses with red façades and white shutters. Tourists visiting Karlskrona can rent a kayak or choose a cycling tour.
