life on älgö
on beautiful älgö, sea and city meet in perfect harmony. here you live with the sea as your neighbor, surrounded by unspoiled nature and a warm, welcoming community. the area is one of saltsjöbaden’s most sought-after addresses—a place where life moves at a calmer pace, yet within easy reach of the city’s pulse.
älgö offers a lifestyle few other areas can match. in summer, the cliffs and beaches fill with swimmers, laughter, and the scent of the sea. the two popular swimming spots, barnbadet and bergsbadet, attract both young and old—the former with its shallow sandy beach and family-friendly atmosphere, the latter with sun-warmed rocks, deep swimming spots, and evening sun late into summer nights. a beloved tradition for generations, a summer swimming school for children is also held at barnbadet.
