Set the pace before choosing a base

Use three to six nights and choose a short loop rather than trying to complete every island connection.

Choose the overnight base after checking the first departure and final return. In Turku Archipelago, short map distances do not always mean a simple public transport journey.

Plan arrival and onward travel together

Ferries may be free or booked depending on the leg, and bicycles, cars and buses face different capacity constraints.

Choose dates for this route
