Joel's guide for Visby
Matkultur
Crêperie & Logi
3 Wallers PlatsGreat crepes and a cozy place during both summer and winter.
Best seafoodplace in Visby. A recommendation is also to buy seafood here over the counter, they sell amazing smoked shrimp from Katthammarsvik which is my favorite food all categories in Visby, which you then can eat either there or take away to home, the sillröra (herring) is amazing also.

My favorite brewery and pub outside Visby who serve street food as well. Nice Bike-distance from the city, if you go out with bikes for a while day, this is a nice final destination before getting back to town. Get the beer flight where you sample 4 beers.

Go swimming in a limestone quarry (kalkbrott) that are waterfilled. Blå lagunen is the biggest and most popular, it’s pretty far up north. Follingbo is smaller and close to Visby (bike distance), not as nice but worth a visit if you’re heading east to Ljugarn.
