Öland, caravan holiday - soo Swedish :P

I just had a brainstorm when I sat and wondered what I should blog about next that are typical swedish and what can't be more swedish than a Caravan holiday on Öland, the popular and according to me the best swedish vacation Island :P .

Packing a caravan full of stuff and going to a camping and live in the caravan and just enjoying what the summer has to offer, the sun, swimming in the ocean you got the point :P, is something that's very common in Sweden and it's not unusual to spot several full campings along the road if you is driving around in sweden.
Caravan-vacation it's like an old swedish tradition or just typical swedish I guess.

But it's not all swedish people that are spending thier vacation this way,  my family for an example, I don't know why we're not vacationing that way but i think that none of us in the family are enjoying staying in a caravan during our vacation and living on a camping, we think it's tacky or more like gypsie-style I believe, it's hard to explain but that's the best comparement I can think of right now.

Anyway what I was going to tell you about is that Öland, the island that is located just below the swedish middle or something like it.

It's a very popular vacation destination for all swedish people, it's people who comes to the souther Sweden from Stockholm or above to spend thier vacation on Öland.

And why Öland of all the places? Öland is something else than the ordinary sweden, it has it has it's own Touch in a different way and it's a little bit extraodinary than the swedish mainland :P and with the perfect weather a summer there could be like a vacation outside Sweden.

The nature on Öland consists of flat-land and much bushes and grass, not that much deep forests that otherwise is common in Sweden.

Because of Ölands popularity it's a lot of things going on during the summer-time and the Island is flowing of parties, teenagares and other activities that could be fun to do :P, and yes alcohol is very common during the vacation-time and actually alot of teenagers are arrasted for being drunk and sadly several traffic accidents takes it's place on this vacation-Island too. Even disasters like murder that occured last midsummer on öland when a couple of drunk teenagers were drunk and lost the controll on a camping last year, I remeber it that well because I was working on a camping about one kilometer from the camping where that teen was murdered.


Alot of campings exists on Öland due to it's increased popularity.
And the camping that stands out most from the others is the five star camping Böda Sand and maybe the most famous one I guess as well and it's located obn the northest tip of Öland. The thing that the camping is most famous for is the not-so-common extrafine white  sand that is there and the camping is very nice overall so it's a place I really recommen to visit if you have the time.

Finally some pictures of this popular summer Island :P


Spendning the vacation in a caravan on a camping is very swedish and common for many sweds :P



Here you got Böda Sand the camping I was talking about :P




What can I say? It's Öland :)


Nice or What?
