Getting There- Ferries
By Ferries – Several Sea Routes to Finland
You can travel to Finland by ferry from Sweden, Estonia and Germany throughout the year.
Not only do the vessels sailing between Finland and its neighbouring countries offer pleasant and comfortable transport, but they provide an abundance of refreshing and relaxing services as well. The wide selection of on-board restaurants ranges from gourmet quality to fast food. The ferries also have bars, discos and excellent shopping opportunities along with fun-filled playrooms for the little ones, while the bigger vessels provide spas and excellent conference facilities.
