Activity description

Admire the stunning scenery and beautiful autumn colours of the Helsinki Archipelago on a thrilling RIB tour during October. Welcoming adventurers from ages 8 and up!

Helsinki is Finland’s largest and capital city, known for its unique architecture, beautiful landscapes and vast archipelago. The city is located on the shores of the Gulf of Finland, part of the Baltic Sea. The archipelago consists of thousands of islands, islets, and skerries, offering a unique and picturesque landscape.

For this exciting tour, you’ll start at the meeting point in Helsinki. The local guide will welcome you on board the Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB). You’ll receive a life vest, goggles, and some clothing to keep you warm throughout the excursion. After a quick safety briefing, the skipper will set sail along the Gulf of Finland. This sturdy boat is designed to traverse waves at high speeds, so sit back and enjoy the sea breeze in your face!

During October, Helsinki’s green spaces transform into stunning displays of reds, oranges, and yellows. As you speed past beautiful islands, both inhabited and habited, you’ll admire lush forests and rocky coastlines. You’ll cruise along Helsinki’s coastline, with amazing views of the city skyline. It is said that some of the best views of the city are seen from the sea! As you sail, the guide will share stories and insights about the history of the area. 

Midway through the excursion, you’ll stop at one of the beautiful islands in the archipelago. The guide will prepare a delicious campfire coffee to warm you up. You can explore the small island, hike through the natural scenery and admire the autumn colours. Then, you’ll return to the boat and travel back to the starting point in Helsinki.

This enjoyable and informative RIB tour is the perfect way to explore Helsinki’s unique coastline during the month of October!
