Step aboard a RIB (rigid inflatable) boat at the harbor for a speedy day at sea in Helsinki.
Your adventure begins by getting to know the beautiful Finnish archipelago. You'll also view Helsinki from a new perspective as the RIB reaches a speed of more than 40 knots as you wind through the archipelago.
Watch for the ship-building area and admire the huge size of the ships being built in the middle of the city.
You'll develop a taste for speed on the water as you pass under bridges and through some of the islands where distinctive Finnish summer cottages are situated.
You'll stop at a summer cottage in the archipelago, where the hostess will welcome you and offer some refreshments and typical, light Finnish snacks. Take a walk in the beautiful surroundings and hear the history of this very special place. Take a look at the traditional wooden sauna and feel free to take a swim in the sea -- a brisk experience amid the beauty of nature.
After your relaxing visit, the speed boat returns you to Helsinki and to your ship.
