Enjoy an unhurried early evening in the archipelago of Helsinki. Helsinki is at its best on summer nights as its coastal cliffs, seaside parks and terraces are filled with people. Feel the urban summer night on our evening cruises that take you past the favourite hangout spots of the locals. Helsinki looks stunning in the soft light of the evening! Read about this 1.5-hour boat tour and book your tickets here.
Gather your friends and head out to sea
This boat tour is an excellent option for afterwork, an evening out with friends or simply a way to enjoy the summer in the city. The tour is not guided – you will only hear relaxing background music as you tour the archipelago. This cruise is all about sharing and making memories and relaxing with your favourite people. However, if you are interested in the route, you can follow it on the route maps that are available on the boat.
Floating terrace at your service!
Are you looking for a terrace that will be sunny until you finish your drink? Our large sundeck guarantees a place in the sun and unobstructed views over the sea at all times. And if the summer night turns out to be chillier than expected, you can always sit indoors. The cosy cafeteria has large windows in all directions, so you will not miss out on the sea view. Our bar sells a variety of cold beverages and light snacks.
The Helsinki coast and the districts
Helsinki has over 130 kilometres of coastline, featuring a wide range of different landscapes, cafeterias, restaurants, ports and beaches. Hop on board and experience the magical atmosphere of Helsinki in summer. Our archipelago boats take you through the most popular coastal areas of the city. The route offers a close-up of the authentic atmosphere of urban summer nights, with locals gathering on the cliffs and seaside terraces to enjoy the evening sun.
The boat glides past the Kaivopuisto beach, Mattolaituri, Cafe Ursula and Liuskasaari. On the eastern side of the city, you can see both old and new Helsinki – Kruunuvuorenranta, Herttoniemi, Kulosaari and the charming Mustikkamaa. As you reach Kalasatama, the quaint island atmosphere is replaced with urban high-rise buildings and metro trains that gleam on the horizon. At the end of the route, you will see the beautiful red-brick buildings in Kanavaranta and the handsome ice-breakers in front of the historical Katajanokka district.
Cruise with or without pizza – you choose
We stop for a moment at the charming small island, Katajanokanluoto. If you want to combine the boat tour with dining, you can order pizza in advance, and your freshly baked pizza will be picked up at the stop. Feeling hungry?

Experience the archipelago responsibly
At Stromma, we're dedicated to providing exceptional experiences to our guests, with a strong commitment to responsible and sustainable practices.

- Save paper by not printing your tour ticket. We can scan the QR-code directly from your mobile device.
- Properly dispose of waste to keep the sea clean. Bins are available both inside the boats and outside on the sun deck. Please be cautious of lightweight trash on the sundeck due to wind.
- Help us recycle. Sort empty bottles and cans in the designated bins.
