Vaxholm
Sweden
A modest island town in the Stockholm archipelago, Vaxholm is one of the two major destinations among the thousands of islands stretching east of the Swedish capital into the Baltic Sea. Its 1549 fortress, built on an adjacent islet, gives the town its name and anchors a waterfront with a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size.
