Take a daring dip in the ice-cold, crystal clear waters of the Baltic Sea before jumping into a sauna. Pick juicy berries on a hike through evergreen forests as you breathe in the clean and fresh air. With over 20,000 islands and islets, there’s no shortage of places to visit in the Turku Archipelago, Finland. This isn’t paradise, but paradise did take a page out of the Turku archipelago’s book.
You’d miss it on a map, but that is what makes the Turku archipelago the best place to visit if you want some peace, quiet and privacy on your family vacation to Finland. Like we mentioned earlier, with over 20,000 islands and tiny little islets, some of which are uninhabited, island hopping in the Turku Archipelago is adventure time for the kids and alone time for grown-ups. And with well-maintained biking and cycling trails, you can ride through one island before taking a ferry to the next one, and the one after that. And with gorgeous resorts in Finland like the Holiday Club Caribia, Turku as your base, you can explore far and wide across the Turku archipelago before returning home to a steamy sauna, a hot meal and a cosy bed.
If you’d rather stay in one place, simply throw a dart at a map of the Turku archipelago and have a picnic on the island where it lands. Or you could spend your afternoons kayaking in the pristine waters off the islands of Pargas and Nagu, two of the largest and most popular islands in the Turku archipelago. Here, you can even dine at waterfront restaurants and visit vineyards and art galleries. Better yet, is the Archipelago National Park, which is pretty much a snapshot of Finland through the ages. From ancient Viking villages to ancient forts and idyllic little villages, this national park will take your breath away with its sheer beauty. The Turku archipelago is best visited during the summer months between June to August, so plan ahead.
