8 Cool Ideas for a Refreshing Summer in Sweden

With its moderate summer temperatures and close-to-nature lifestyle, Sweden has become a destination of choice for lovers of refreshing holidays. In southern Sweden, summer temperatures average around 20 to 25 °C, with occasional peaks of 30 °C.  Rainfall is lowest on the islands in the Baltic Sea – such as Gotland, Öland and the archipelagos along the east coast of Sweden – and in valleys surrounded by mountains. Due to its high latitude, Sweden enjoys significantly longer summer days than those in more southern countries.
