Access to the mainland is by the Muskö Tunnel [sv], with a length of 2,895 metres (9,498 ft), which connects Muskö to the neighbouring island of Yxlö under the waters of the Baltic Sea. Yxlö is itself connected to the mainland by a series of road bridges. The road across the bridges and islands, and through the tunnel, is known as the Muskö road [sv] and was originally built in the 1960s to provide access to the naval base.[1]
The island of Muskö is divided into east and west halves by the Muskö Canal, an artificial channel first dug at the beginning of the 18th century and re-excavated in the 1930s.[2]
