Archipelago National Park
Photo: ANP Archive
Unwinding on a deserted island, surrounded by the open sea - Archipelago National Park in the Southwest of Finland, evokes the Robinson Crusoe feeling in you.
Sailing from island to island. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the cry of the gulls. Blueberries for breakfast and fresh grilled fish for lunch.
A visit to the Archipelago National Park is an encounter with the sea. The park consists of 2000 rugged, rocky islands and forms the core of the great Archipelago Sea Biosphere Reserve, one of the largest archipelagos in the world. The Vikings used to embark from here and vessels of the Hanseatic League passed by. Still today plenty of old shipwrecks slumber at the bottom of the sea.
On the surface colonies of grey and ringed seals laze on the sunny sandbanks. Moose and small rodents roam the windswept island forests. And once in a while the white tailed eagle, the pride and emblem of the archipelago, circles in the sky on the hunt for prey.
Sail from island to island and spend time wherever you like it best
