Welcome to the happiest, the greenest, and the most fabulous country in the world – Finland!
Finland is the nature lover’s paradise with plenty of fresh air and clean nature. The variety of wildlife, thousands of crystal-clear lakes, and green forests are worthwhile admiring. There are numerous possibilities to exercise outdoor activities such as fishing and camping in the summer, ice skating and skiing (ski resorts) in the winter.
And, of course, the famous Northern Lights, that can best be observed in spring and autumn. Finland can take pride in its beautiful national parks and clean natural beaches. The best way to enjoy the beauty of Finland’s nature is by car together with your family, loved ones or friends. The best car packages from Helsinki to Tallinn are of course offered by Eckerö Line!
Finland is a great place to visit with families since there are exciting activities for children of all ages – for example, the Linnanmäki Amusement Park, the Moominworld Theme Park, the amazing underwater world of Sea Life, the Korkesaari Zoo and various water parks. Finland is very well known for its saunas and sauna culture. There is a huge number of public wellness saunas and baths in Finland, where you can enjoy the magic of a true Finnish bath. A variety of baths and saunas in Helsinki can be found here.
Finnish cuisine is well known for its pure flavors as well as for its fresh seasonal food. On the Finnish table, you can find delicious dishes of meat, fish, and vegetables together with lots of wild mushrooms and berries. The Finnish cuisine praises the pureness of raw material and lets the product itself shine by not seasoning it very strongly. In Finnish cuisine, just as in the nature of Finland, seasonality is very important - so you will be served dishes that are the best at that particular season! Finnish cuisine is very interesting and vibrant. It has been influenced by its neighboring nations, but it also has dishes that are hardly known anywhere else. The list of dishes of classic Finnish cuisine can be found in more detail here.
Finnish cuisine is also highly appreciated on board MS Finlandia as she sails under the Finnish flag! More information about our food philosophy can be found here.
