The Swedish town and port of Kapellskar is located on the Baltic Sea coast, around 90 km to the north of Stockholm. The town is in Norrtalje Municipality which is in Stockholm county in east central Sweden. The municipality was created in 1971 through the amalgamation of several former municipalities and is now the largest and northernmost municipality in Stockholm County. Many of the houses in the region are summer cottages, only inhabited during summertime. This is due to its geographical location by the Stockholm archipelago, which makes it popular among Stockholmers and tourists.
It is the most northern port in "the ports of Stockholm" and is an important port for both passengers and cargo departing to destinations in Finland, Norway, Russia and the Baltics. The port is popular because it has a very short approach which makes it ideal for fast sailings and turnarounds.
The Finnish city of Naantali is located in the south west of the country and is an important tourist destination. The city has a land area of around 300 sq. km and is actually located on a number of islands although most of the population live on the mainland. The terrain of the islands are a combination of forest and farmland while the mainland is mainly urban, consisting largely of residential areas. It is one of Finland's oldest cities and was founded around the medieval Brigittine convent Vallis Gratiae whose church still dominates the city's skyline. The town grew around the convent whose charter was signed in 1443 by King Christopher of Sweden, who at the time ruled Finland. The name Naantali is the Fennicised version of the Swedish name of the town, Nådendal. The Swedish name was given as a direct translation from the Latin Vallis Gratiae which literally means "The Valley of Grace".
