A celebrated summer retreat for Finland’s wealthy urbanites
This small town is a hugely popular hotspot for locals, who come here in their droves every June and July to spend their holidays before heading to their summer retreats in August.
The town’s heart comprises a beautiful marina, awash with clapboard wooden restaurants that serve up delicious cuisine, as well as hosting a number of parties that take full advantage of the midnight sun. One of the most popular hotspots is the yacht club, where you’ll find rooftop revelry and upscale dining throughout the summer season, where the smart set hang out and enjoy the scenic views from the balcony.
The town is eminently walkable, although cycling is a popular pastime here, with bike hire available in a number of locations. Cycling also enables visitors to truly explore this scenic outpost. Meander past venerable mansions – akin to Newport, Rhode Island’s summer “cottages” – and pine-clad forests, with stops at the beach where you'll find vast stretches of salmon-pink sands and gentle lapping waters that overlook the scenic archipelago.
Head to the town’s tennis courts, where myriad families spend a leisurely afternoon enjoying a few friendly games before retiring to the clubhouse for some refreshments. There is also a spectacular outdoor concert area nearby, which plays host to numerous live events throughout the summer.
