Photos, information and travel guides for your stay.
Färjestaden is a locality situated in Mörbylånga Municipality, Kalmar County, Sweden with 5,018 inhabitants in 2010. It is located in the southern part of the island of Öland, on the Kalmar Strait side, south of Borgholm. Färjestaden, literally The Ferry Town, is named after the ferries that used to be the only connection to the mainland. Nowadays the car-bridge Ölandsbron connects the mainland with the island, and Färjestaden has had an impressive population increase, making it several times bigger than the town Mörbylånga.
Nestled on the eastern coast of Öland, Färjestaden is a quaint town that offers visitors a glimpse into the authentic Swedish way of life. This locality is known for its stunning beaches, natural beauty, and rich cultural heritage. Färjestaden is a popular summer destination, but there's something for everyone to enjoy all year round.
One of the most popular attractions in Färjestaden is the Öland Bridge, which connects the mainland to the island of Öland. This magnificent bridge is over 6 kilometers long and offers stunning views of the Baltic Sea. When you cross the bridge, you'll find yourself in a world of natural beauty, with miles of pristine beaches, rolling hills, and quaint villages.
