The Beaches of Helsinki: Lehtisaari beach

Lehtisaaren uimaranta

Lehtisaari is a small beach in the western parts of the city of Helsinki. The beach is not very big, but it is appreciated by the locals. As a side effect, you can see the business district Keilaniemi in Espoo. Keilaniemi was the original home of Nokia corporation, and many finnish international companies are located there.

The Beaches of Helsinki: Mustikkamaa beach

Mustikkamaan uimaranta, Helsinki

Mustikkamaa is one of my favourite streets in Helsinki. A large and well-equipped beach is right next to the city centre. But a trip through Kulosaari to the archipelago forcibly "breaks away from everyday life". Nowadays, you can also get to Mustikkamaa via the new "Isoisänsilta" bridge..

How to get to Nuuksio (Noux) via public transport?

Nuuksio is a large Nature Park just outside Helsinki. Quite often people ask me where to get off from bus etc. So here are instructions on how to get to Nuuksio by using public transport.

First: where is Nuuksio?

Here is a map of the area. Nuuksio is located in the Helsinki region, about 25 kilometers from Helsinki. Nuuksio is actually in three municipalities: Espoo, Kirkkonummi and Vihti.

The Beaches of Espoo: Oittaa

The Beach of Oittaa is located on the shores of Lake Bodom. The beach is suitable for families with children as it deepens gradually. Actually Oittaa has actually two seperate beaches. Oittaa is the most popular beach in Espoo, and one of the "top beaches" in Helsinki region.

The Beach of Votsalakia, Piraeus nearby Athens

Since I've taken pictures from all the beaches of my hometown Espoo, a hasty person might think that I am disregarding the other beaches. Sometimes, I may get bored and go for a swim instance for the Piraeus. Piraeus is the neighboring city of Athens, in a sense, therefore, similar to what Espoo is to Helsinki.
