Outdoor Cooking on the Island

Food almost always tastes best in nature. Cooking together over an open fire, with the sea right next to you makes it even more special.

On this experience your clients join us on a guided boat tour to one of our favorite islands, where we dock and prepare an outdoor lunch. They are welcome to take part in the cooking if they like, or just relax, explore the island or perhaps take a swim if they prefer.

During the day we go around the islands on our Ockelbo B21CAB. In its cabin up to 4 guests sit dry, warm and safe in all weather. If they are a larger group than four we collaborate with other boat charters for the transportation.

  • 1 – 12 people
    Recommended from the age of 13.
    All participants need to have the ability to get on and off the boat from the cliffs.

  • Duration: 5 hours

    Starting time: Can be flexible, but since we are cooking lunch we suggest starting at 10.30am from Vaxholm.

    Season: Available from May to October.

  • We’ll meet at our B&B, Drottninggatan 7 in Vaxholm unless else is agreed.

    If the client wishes, we can arrange for the tour to start / finish at Strandvägen in Stockholm.

  • We will bring life wests and all equipment needed for the cooking. On the boat everyone sits dry and warm in the cabin. But we advice to dress according to the weather and bring rain clothes if needed. A hat may also be nice.

  • We adjust the menu according to food allergies. However we cannot guarantee gluten-free dishes. We can cook with naturally gluten-free ingredients, but since we handle gluten in the kitchen at other times there is always a risk of traces of gluten in everything we cook.

  • 1-4 people: 7,995 SEK / group
    Saturday: +2,000 SEK / group
    Sunday: +3,500 SEK / group
