Sauna by boat in the Finnish archipelago

You probably know that the Finnish people love their sauna. Another fact about Finland that you might not know, is that there is a beautiful Finnish archipelago, containing more than 179,584 islands. So why not combine these two facts? That’s what the creators of the FInnish sauna ship have done.

The sauna boat caters to groups looking for beautiful nature experiences, companies who want team-building activities or any group interested in enjoying the beautiful Finnish seascape from the heat and comfort of a floating sauna. Packages can be tailored to specific needs, and different guided sightseeing tours are arranged, One of them is the “Helsinki by the Sea Tour”, passing by essential sights along the Helsinki coastline, such as Suomenlinna Sea Fortress, Helsinki Zoo island, Seurasaari Open-Air Museum, the Sibelius Monument, the Uspenski Orthodox Cathedral as well as Pihlajasaari and Iso Vasikkasaari islands. Other themed tours are offered as well, such as fishing tours, tours for nature photography, wine tasting cruises and culinary tours.

The prices for a ride with the sauna ship start at 195€ per hour. That includes boat and skipper, and also wood and water for the sauna, gasoline, insurance and barbecue equipment. Towels and whisks can be rented for a small amount, and food can be served on board. It’s hard to imagine what can taste better than a barbecue sausage and some ice-cold Finnish beer, with your skin steaming after the sauna, and overlooking the spectacularly beautiful Finnish archipelago.
