If you’re coming from the Kaknäs Tower, the Maritime Museum or the Museum of Science and Technology on a hot day, maybe a dip in one of the nearby Kampement Pools would feel good. Kampement is a basic outdoor park set-up, with a heated pool, toddlers’ pool, a sauna—pretty standard at Scandinavian pools—and a candy and ice-cream stand.

Here’s something you should know: In Sweden you often swim at your own risk, but when Kampement is open, there is always a lifeguard on duty.
