Amazing island, the boat starts from Gamla hamn around 12 noon to the island. Ticket cost is 15 € per head with return if you buy from on the spot, it's bit more if you are booking through Facebook or internet. It's a nice boat ride of 50 odd minutes to reach to the Masskar. The island is beautiful with a big cafe and lots of cute cottages which can be rented out for nice summer vacation. There are few very pretty tracks which can lead to the rocky beaches. The place is full of green nature is summer. There were lots of berries all over the island which can be handpicked. The other timing of the boat is at 6 pm which returns at 9 pm. In winter the island gets different scenery and if the sea is frozen people can skie to the island or walk there. Would love to visit again in...
