This was a great excuse to get ferry 80 from central Stockholm to travel to the museum.
After getting off you can go left or right from the jetty. Going left means you enter via the garden with its lovely Vigeland sculptures, so if you went right, make sure you leave via the garden. No really, you don't want to miss them (but go to Vigeland Park in Oslo before you get too old, you will thank me).
Inside is a collection of paintings that is by turn interesting and dull - like most museums. We came for the Carl Larsson (but there is less than I hoped for) and to a lesser extent, the Munch (much less than you expect). But having said that, I still enjoyed the visit. The building is beautiful and calming, the displays and information are good, and the cafe - OMG that cafe was fantastic.
Near there is the 'Gravitational Ripple'. Go find it and have a thoughtful moment.
So IMHO, yes go and enjoy the water and the serenity and the art and the food. You won't be sorry.
