Indispensable people

The Askö staff can help out with almost everything. Not only do they do all maintenance, drive the boats and manoeuver marine equipment on research missions, they also plan and arrange your stay in the best possible way!

Tip before your trip

Don’t forget to inform yourself before you leave for Askö! There is no shop, so you have to bring everything you need. In the winter it could be a bit empty, and during summertime it can get a little crowded.
