Would you like to organize an enjoyable evening for your group? Book a sailing boat with an exprerienced skipper and get on the sea. A visit to Suomenlinna sea fortress can be included.
Helsinki is a beautiful seaside city. It has to be seen from the sea. You will visit the fortress of Suomenlinna on an island in front the city center and enjoy a picnic there among the locals. On the way there you might want to stop on the island of Lonna, which is also open for visits.
Hardly anything is more enjoyable than sailing and fresh sea air. Each boat has an experienced skipper taking care of the sailing. The sailing can start either from the western side of the city in Ruoholahti or from the Old Market Hall. You will sail east from Helsinki. The route chosen by the skipper depends on the weather and the sailing experience of the participants. Before leaving you will get a half an hour introduction to saililng. Previous experience on sailing is not necessary.
You can take with you a takeaway lunch or you can ask us to provide catering for you. One alternative is to ask the sailing to end on one of the restaurant islands and have dinner there (and to take a restaurant shuttle boat back) There are soft drinks and mineral water available on the boat.
You will get a life jacket and if necessary, a rain and wind proof coat.
Your experienced skipper will guide you and instruct you in case you do want to participate in sailing.
Dinner menu is available as extra for 52€/person.
