Activities and nature

The city centre is just minutes away from the seaside, with stunning views that can be enjoyed on foot, by bike, or by boat or stand-up paddle board! Just a little further away, the gorgeous UNESCO World Natural Heritage scenery of the Kvarken archipelago and the fertile flatlands of the Ostrobothnian countryside await
