Lennart and Lise Söderlund lead guided tours in the Björn archipelago, with Fågelsundet among the places named in the tour description. The outings travel around the shallow archipelago to explore nature and birdlife, and include a visit to Björn, the lighthouse island. The route has both a water and a land element: visitors go ashore on Björn and walk up to its lighthouse, where the guides talk about the families who lived there before.

Birds are a focus of the tour. Lennart has been a bird ringer and bird watcher for 40 years, and talks about migration routes, distribution and nesting for the birds seen during the outings. The tour description also places the birdlife in the wider setting of the archipelago and its outdoor life.

At Fågelsundet, a 2-kilometre nature trail runs along the sea. In mid-May, gull frogs can be heard playing there. Rödhällen and Rossholm are other nearby places to visit, both described as having views of the sea. The tour description gives no price, schedule or duration, so check the operator's current details before making plans.
