Stora Nassa, Nature reserve in Stockholm archipelago, Sweden.

The Stora Nassa reserve encompasses 400 islands and skerries across 2950 hectares, with 310 hectares of land surface in the Baltic Sea.

The nature reserve received its protected status in 1965 through collaboration with the Elisabeth and Robert Nathanson family foundation, which continues to manage the area.

The Swedish society Pelarorden established a wind vane monument on Storskar island in 1892, symbolizing the bonds between maritime community members.

Visitors can only access the reserve by private boat, with camping permitted exclusively on Beckskaret and Stor Sprangskaret islands.

The larger islands contain multi-stemmed birches resembling mountain forests, while smaller skerries feature creeping junipers and rare orchid species.
