Summer and sea!
Some of the islands of Uusimaa can be reached by a ferry or boat taxi, while others require you to have your own boat or kayak. There is something for everyone: accessible destinations, saunas, cafes, boat jetties… Or perhaps you are looking for the simplicity of a couple of mooring rings and a campfire site? Below you will find some suggestions for where to go, and there are more ideas on the map! You can use the filter to search for islands, but if you don’t have a boat, we recommend filtering also for public transport. Summer is meant to be spent by the sea!
