Your four-legged friend is welcome to the world heritage city of Karlskrona!
Of course, the doggy is going with you on holiday! Here there are restaurants, cafés, hotels and dog baths, which go the extra mile for everyone's best friend. Here we advise on dog-friendly places, and guide you and your dog right through the city.
Regardless of whether you are looking for coffee, good food or want to go out to have fun, you are welcome with your dog in several places around the city. Keep in mind that different restaurants have different rules when it comes to dogs. Always check before booking a table or ask on the spot. Many restaurants allow the dog to join the outdoor dining area - but always ask the staff first. Below you will find places to eat where your friend is welcome. Havgården in Nättraby even has its own menu for doggies.
Parks, green areas, walking paths in the center or nature reserves - Karlskrona offers a pleasant visit for all dog owners. There are several dog parks in and outside of Karlskrona - here you can let your dog loose. However, remember to show consideration for the other dogs and their owners, so that everyone can enjoy themselves.
Our four-legged friends are also welcome to visit Karlskrona municipality's outdoor bathing areas. Karlskrona municipality has two official dog bathing areas; one on northern Långö and one on Dragsö. Dogs are welcome to swim here all year round.

Here you will find a range of accommodation facilities that welcome dogs. Don't forget to mention your four-legged friend when booking your accommodation!
