Helsinki Harbour

A true emblem of the city, Helsinki’s harbour has been here since the very beginning. It has evolved from a quiet fishing port, into a vibrant, tourist-friendly European capital. These days, the harbour serves a very different purpose: it’s now a fully equipped marina, welcoming private boats and serving as a departure point for cruises and ferries bound for Stockholm, Tallinn, and other destinations. Nearly 500,000 passengers board ferries and cruise ships here every year! The harbour is without a doubt one of the city’s must-see spots.
