Experience the breathtaking beauty of Eastern Helsinki
The Eastern Island Route is Helsinki's only internal water transport route from the mainland to the mainland. During the trip, you will experience authentic island life and, once there, the natural experiences of East Helsinki. The route takes you to the Helsinki archipelago, where other public vessels rarely go to. The trip includes a passage through the Degerö channel and the small islands of Kallahdenselkä. In Vuosaari, Aurinkolahti beach, Kallahdenniemi and Uutelan Nature Park await you.
During the cruise, snacks, non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages are available in the ship's café.
Favourite spots: the Degerö (Laajasalo) canal, Kivisaari, Vartiosaari
The cruise takes approximately 1 h 45 minutes each way. The duration also depends on the destination you are visiting.
