When to take the ferry to Gothenburg?

Summer, from June to August, is the best time to travel in Sweden if you're looking for mild temperatures and plenty of sunshine.

Spring and autumn, from March to May and September to November, offer milder temperatures, but can be accompanied by rain. Average temperatures vary between 10°C and 15°C, with sunny days and cooler nights.
